Andrea: As you pointed out, this fix only resolves the urgent part of
the bug. In perusing the HAL code, I didn't see a good way to indicate
that we could only "read" the brightness and not write it. After this
bug is finished up and closed out, we can open a new bug in the future
to try to possibly get that kind of fine grained tuning integrated.
