Is there a workaround for controlling brightness as well?

Is there a workaround for controlling brightness as well (via redshift -b)? It's the only thing missing. I find that late at night, the screen is too bright unless at the temperature is set incredibly low (~1900K), which makes things too red. Unfortunately, setting redshift's brightness manually seems to conflict with redshift-scheduler--it would set the brightness but reset after a while (perhaps in a minute or so, which I guess is because of redshift-scheduler's gradual change per minute).

Hmm.

It seems like when redshift is called like this redshift -O <temperature>, the brightness would get reset.
We would either need support for controller the brightness (within rules).. Or a way to read the current brightness (somehow) and call it like this: redshift -O <temperature> -b <brightness>.

I think that being able to adjust the brightness automatically could be convenient though.

Another thing I'm wondering is.. Maybe we have the same problem with gamma (redshift -g ..)
