This bug is a great usability problem. Let's see:
1. User boots laptop (cold boot, not wake from suspend)
2. User sets comfortable backlight level
3. User ends his/her work by shutting down the laptop (not suspend, so backlight level is not saved)
4. Go to 1 (another cold boot with reseted backlight level).
According to original Ask Ubuntu thread there are many users which are interested in implementation of the aforementioned functionality.
Other distros have this functionality, but Ubuntu does not. It is a disadvantage.
On my laptop I (as an author of the script) have backlight save/restore functionality, but newbies does not. I think that this bug must be fixed as fast as possible.
