Comment 3 for bug 250935

tricky1, what does this have to do with my bug report?

Note, that the values you see in my debdiff are the ones currently specified in /etc/default/acpi-support and /etc/acpi/power.sh, nothing more. /etc/default/acpi-support currently specifies SPINDOWN_TIME=12, but 12 is not seconds, it's a magical value that translates to 60 seconds (because in that lower range it's a number of 5 seconds intervals). It is not my job to argue correctness of default values, all I want is to move hard-coded values from acpi-support to laptop-mode-tools where they can be clearly and easily tweaked by users (i.e. 60 seconds is much more elaborate than magical number 12).

I wonder if this would be triaged and/or considered by developers before Intrepid freeze...
