If you know how Nokia's applets manage to work like they do, then please let us know.

It's on the TODO. The issue isn't really in our implementation (we have the light meter data, we have access to the backlight controls), but colliding with Nokia's implementation, as there doesn't seem to be a good way to turn it off or interface with it.

Anyway, it's being looked at.
