and now that we have a settings dialog, how silly of me would it be to ask for a user tunable light dialog? as in, a option to turn on something similar to the default light blacklight adjustment dialog, but with stepping sizes that can be set by the user?

It is actually very useful when using left/right keys, rather than tapping the screen. The problem is, of course, to find the most useful 3/4/5 values.

Is there a way to incorporate a defeat for the low light backlight brightness? A fancy way would be to add a third slider that sets the low light value. One could then set it 'anywhere' including equal brightness to the normal setting.

One solution would be to modify just the hardware keys code to go to the nearest "hotspot" which could be like, every 15 or 20 brightness levels, instead of having the hardware keys move one at a time. What do you think of that? I don't like the idea of actually making set jumps much tho, as then we're right back in the same boat as the Nokia applet. >_<

Quick problem I have with this applet at the moment is that its popup window does not do urgent close like the "official" volume control applet (or many other applets, for that matter). This means that it stays open when I click on something other than it. In addition, it seems to be of the wrong window type, again compared to other such applets.
Other than that, great work

Don't know if you can get into that part of the code but though it worth asking.

Anyway, it's being looked at.
