If you by mistake slide the brightness slider all the way to the left, your screen will go black. This makes it impossible to change it back since you won’t find the slider anymore.

This happens both in the Power settings, as well as in the top right settings menu.

Fixed in 3.16. Unfortunately not easy to fix in 3.14 without introducing the same patches but since they change behavior significantly I decided not to do that.

Cool, that works for me. Will just wait for 3.16 then. Thanks a lot! :)
