If you right-click on the top bar, and click "Add to Panel...", you can add the "Brightness Applet" to control screen brightness. I will have to double check what the power savings configuration program is called, and where it is, but I remember all kinds of settings for things like dimming the screen when idle, setting screen brightness, etc when on battery power. Two things to keep in mind - the brightness settings do not work for all laptops, and some BIOSs have settings that control how the laptop behaves when it goes to battery power. If your laptop turns out to be one that in not fully supported yes, then you will need to file a bug report.
