[PATCH] xfce4-power-manager: Support for keyboard backlight control

[Sonal Santan]

Hi,

I see two downsides of using pommed:

It is not integral part of XFCE

It duplicates the functionality like LCD brightness and volume control
which are already supported by XFCE

The patch I have proposed integrates the keyboard backlight control into
xfce power manager without adding any other dependency.
