--- Comment #25 from Pedro V <voidpointertonull+bugskde...@gmail.com> ---
Wondered why was this still kept around, so checked out the current status:
- When there's hardware backlight control (typically on laptops), there's a
"Dim screen" option which already covered this desire for me well with dimming
set to 9 minutes (seconds granularity would be neat though) and switching off
set to 10 minutes, but I just found out from the conversation here that there's
really a fade out effect before turning the monitor off.
- When there's no hardware backlight control (typically on desktops), there's
no "Dim screen" option, but surprisingly the fade out effect is present in that
case too.

The fade to black effect surely seems to be surprisingly quick based on the
fact that I never even realized it existed, and it surely doesn't satisfy the
need expressed in the first comment.
I feel like the original desire would be already satisfied with the "Dim
screen" functionality being covered by a screen effect when hardware backlight
control isn't present.
