Public bug reported:

Display backlight turns back on almost immediately after being turned
off.

In theory DPMS support has landed in XMir, but it's not really working.

TEST CASE:
xset dpms force off
Expected: Screen turns off and stays off
Observed: Screen turns off and then immediately either:
  (a) turns back on fully; or
  (b) the backlight turns back on but the screen remains black.
