--- Comment #4 from Jan-Michael Brummer <jan.brummer at tabos.org> ---
Jani, i agree with you that it is always a burden to add workarounds to a sane
driver. In this case we do have another aspect to consider:

Those devices are 2-in-1.

There is a high chance that those devices are used without a keyboard attached
and then there is not even a option to use the keyboard backlight hardkeys:
Doomed.

What would be your proposal here? Let every desktop environment fix it in their
controls and multiply the quirk n-times? Or fix it somewhere in the driver
code, let it be intel gfx or whereever?

I would like to hear your thoughts on this one.
