Thank you for taking the time to report this issue and help to improve Ubuntu.
I'm hesitant to make this change such a short time before release, because of the various reports from people that the setLEDAsusWireless function breaks things for them when it's active (bug #293943, bug #334368). Ultimately this LED switching *should* be handled in the kernel, not in acpi-support; and it seems that for at least some models this is already the case, so I'm concerned that "fixing" this script will introduce a regression.
