Sounds good.

I think it would be helpful if the example shows two LEDs related to a
sensor. Part of the problem I have in understanding this code is that I
have zero experience with ACPI (and that is probably true for most other
developers), so I don't know how this is encoded. With a good example it
is much easier to understand.

I think that will help.

Ignore this comment for now. I'll take another look when I see v14.
