Well I tried installing some older versions (gnome-power-manager_2.24.2-2ubuntu4 and gnome-power-manager_2.24.2-2ubuntu5) that should have been released prior to the patches in question. This didn't seem to change the brightness indicator's step number. I'm not sure if this was a valid test. If not, let me know.
