So, to sum up Kevin's post above (comment 42), the fix for this bug is for Ubuntu to apply the following two patches to their version of X:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/patch/?id=db568f9eabf3450d8a023597ff007df355b13ea8
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/patch/?id=6b5978dcf1f7ac3ecc2f22df06f7000f360e2066

This will stop X from resetting IDLECOUNTER when DPMS off is sent, which turns the screen back on right after it shuts off.
