The actual switching is happening in the BIOS when you press the key.  The
BIOS spits out the keycode and dell-laptop says "OK sure, lets change our
internal status now"  So that would explain how the information works
reverted.  Dell-laptop also has support to send the toggle itself, but it
needs to know the starting status to accurately do that.
