*I think this would be perfect for a bug.

**My feature request is specifically that PM offer the ability to have the
monitor power down after a certain period of inactivity. Ideally it
would be possible to have the screensaver run for some period, for
entertainment purposes, but then shut off and power down the monitor
after a bit. LCD monitors come back almost instantly, so it isn't
nearly the liability that it was in the days of CRTs*

You might also consider submitting the above idea
toBrainstorm<http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/>.
Brainstorm <http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/> provides a simple way for anyone
to contribute ideas for improving Ubuntu. All ideas are voted on by the user

*The unclear help menu.*

Screen shots, deciphering code and clairvoyant interpretation of intent is
well beyond the skill and time allowance of most users. "Detailed
description" needs to be exactly what you are comfortable doing. I was
thinking more along the lines of what you have already provided, just in its
own bug report.

Submit those as two bugs and* I think* that will help get them moved along.
Good Luck.
