Sébastien, what do you think? Should we show a brightness slider on machines that aren't laptops? My hunch is that for those one should rely on brightness settings of the monitor itself, and thus just hide this slider. I'm not sure whether, e.g., Windows or Mac OS, offer brightness adjustment options on non-laptops. Please reassign to me afterwards. Thanks!
We should enable the brightness slider on all devices where brightness can be controlled via that slider. If the slider does nothing on Chromebox because the brightness is only controllable via the built-in display UI, then we should definitely take it out. Hope that makes sense and that it is something we can be aware of as a system.
