There are actually some models already with a built in ambient light sensor. I don't know how much of a convenience it would be, whether it would be distracting if small changes in ambient light make the brightness go up and down all the time. I personally prefer changing it manually - I have a macro pad with knobs which are mapped to do that.
I too, just disable the ambient sensor, but if I had to have one,
I'd rather have one that sends the sensor data to the PC, via an Open Protocol over DDC and let the KDE brightness setting handle the Brightness value decision (which would be easily configurable, of course).
