On further reflection, I realize that while fixing 1437510 would be a 
great improvement, it doesn't actually solve the problem I'm having 
with Beru.  The point of dimming the screen is (I assume) to alert the 
user that it's about to lock, so they can prevent that if they desire.  
But taking preventative action will still result in an undesired page 
change.  (This situation will occur much less often, but it's still 
there.)

So: Are taps that undo the dimming supposed to go through to the active 
app, or should they be trapped by the system?  And if it's the former, 
how can an app tell if the screen has dimmed?

Thanks,
Robert
