[Bug 840683] [NEW] gnome-control-center is missing 'dim screen brightness when idle and on battery'

 

Public bug reported:

At least this appears to be the case. Perhaps it is just poor wording -
in the 'Screen' settings there is a checkbox saying 'Dim screen to save
power' that apparently does nothing when ticked. Does it really mean
'Dim screen to save power when the computer is idle and on battery'?
