I have to add my frustration with the lack of this option. We have a
number of PCs displaying network status information on large screens.
Without this option we’re unable to use (or test) 11.10 on these
machines as the screens will blank.

We were hoping to standardise on Ubuntu across all desktops after the
release of 11.10, however the lack of such basic features is not only a
barrier to testing it’s a major concern if not expected at release.

I mentioned this here:

expecting that I’d missed something obvious or that this was just a
simple option that would be added nearer release. Reading this thread
(and worse what the folks at Gnome have written) gives the impression
things are going backwards rather than forwards. I hope I’m
misinterpreting?
