Seth, I booted into your kernel at
http://people.canonical.com/~sforshee/lp1098216/linux-3.8.0-19.29~lp1098216v201304221819/
on my T530.

It's definitely mixed results:

+ brightness keys on keyboard work again, and I get the full brightness range
- shift+brightness keys don't step through the very fine brightness levels that
  I recall from 12.04 and 12.10. These are just coarse jumps.
- The on-screen-indicator is completely wrong. Probably not unexpected.
- Settings | Brightness slider does nothing. Probably not unexpected.

Adding acpi_osi='!Windows 2012' works better:

+ brightness keys work, I get the full brightness range
+ shift+brightness keys step through very fine brightness levels
+ on-screen indicator works with coarse stepping; doesn't work with fine 
stepping
+ Settings | Brightness slider works

Thanks again
