The brightness problem is just gnome trying to be smart. Before the patch it had no control over the brightness, but not that it has control, well mostly, it does crazy stuff. I actually had the same problem in reverse. Whenever I unplugged my laptop it would dim the screen no matter what setting I manually set it to. I fixed it by going into the powermanagement settings and disabling dim on idle for battery power mode. Something similar could help you out.
