Bug Description

The minimum display brightness level should switch off the display, not just dim the display. This makes it possible to voluntarily switch off the display of a laptop; currently you must wait for the inactivity timeout to power it off.

The brightness levels should be, similarly to Mac OS and Windows, something like

    OFF - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4

not the current

    1 - 2 - 3 - 4
