Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

gnome-power-manager 2.28.1-0ubuntu1
Ubuntu 9.10

The default menu of g-p-m is reductive (and that's a designer's choice)
to the point that it's dumb (designer's mistake).

The brightness control bar is present for ac condition, I can actually
set my pc to NOT have maximum brightness when on ac. USELESS for 99% of
population. But not for when the pc is on battery power, that is stuck
on 50% reduction unless you tinker with gconf-editor.

This is plain stupid. The control bar should be absent for ac and
present for battery, where some people want brightness above 50% or
below if their eyes can handle it, for battery power saving issues.
