Thanks for the explanation, Tim. It's a bit unintuitive, especially since I have idle-dim(ac|battery) set to false!

In any case, I still see some inconsistencies. I've got the following settings:
sleep-display-(ac|battery) 4
sleep-inactive-(ac|battery)-timeout 5
idle-dim-time 5

The screen dims at 9 seconds, which is consistent with sleep-display-(ac|battery) + idle-dim-time.

OTOH, the computer suspends at c. 50 seconds, which doesn't seem to make sense at all?
