Maybe the inactivity should not include mouse/trackpad. In many cases, I only
use mouse (e.g., browsing the web) so if the keyboard light keeps getting
turned on/off each time I use the mouse, it would be distracting. I think I
only need keyboard inactivity (turns off 15s after no keyboard input).  I don't
remember exactly, but I think Samsung's keyboard backlight setting worked this
way. (

)

So, maybe the automatic turn-off should provide two options:
(1)no user input (this includes mouse/trackpad)
(2)no keyboard input

Anyway, is this feature being developed? It is an essential feature for
laptops, in my opinion. Windows has it, macOS has it.
