I've had this bug in gutsy and it is still in Hardy. I have a IBM thinkpad r51. I don't mind it dimming my backlight on battery. However, sometimes I want it brighter while on battery, and it should be my choice. I override it with the buttons on the laptop, but it only stays brighter for a couple minutes. I don't want it getting dimmer on idle. People watch movies and stuff. If the computer goes idle, it should go totally black, and I'm pretty sure it does do that. there aren't any backlight settings in the power manager. sometimes i plug the computer in just to get the brighter screen, when it should be my choice to use the battery faster.
