Both options will stay. I do have to admit that I don't use it often, but I don't want to incur the wrath of users that do.

Plus, I don't like the idea of making "Keep Display On" easily activatable for obvious reasons.

Alas, this is what happens when you use a deprecated widget. I didn't want to, but since Nokia use it in their applet to provide the brightness slider, I had to use it too so that it would share the same look. :\

The gap could be made smaller, though; thanks, I'll try and lower the space used.
