this report has been filed here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/824211 "Power settings dialog wastes a lot of space. The right side of the dialog is completely empty." https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/824211/+attachment/2267025/+files/Power_012.png
The layout is bad, though it's more a problem of aesthetics than economy. I mean, we don't *need* the space for anything; it's just ugly. ;) Thankfully, there is a new design that's waiting to be implemented that will solve the issue: https://live.gnome.org/Design/SystemSettings/Power/
*** Bug 657605 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The configuration part of the new design has now been implemented (see bug 657916). I'd say this report is now obsolete.
