Never mind. I'm lazy (that's not to say someone is too).

I redid the test:

Before running "xset dpms force standby":

 http://vin-soft.org/~raa/public/test/intel_reg_dumper-before

After running "sleep 3"

 http://vin-soft.org/~raa/public/test/intel_reg_dumper-suspend

After running "xset dpms force on; sleep 3"

 http://vin-soft.org/~raa/public/test/intel_reg_dumper-xset-on

After closing and opening the lid (displays backlight is back)
