Yes that works. Maybe Raphael can set up something where the 
brightness up/down scripts is saved. 

There is only one thing that might need some work: If you do it this
way then GNOME for example will decrease the brightness and the acpi
subsystem, too, so you will get two steps less I suppose.

This can be undone by removing the Intel block completely ;-)

Her ein the nvidia block I would use nvclock, it is somehow newer and
actively developed AFAIR.
