SUMMARY
Some people don't want to use the light themes, because "they are too bright at night".
You know how there's the night light feature and how there'd DDI/CI desktop monitor control feature and laptop monitors have brightness controls.
Well what if there was an option to basically make the brightness change given the time of day given time to sunrise/sunset.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go on r/kde where some posts a white theme.
2. People complain and stuff.

OBSERVED RESULT
https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/1k9jpmp/comment/mpezfj3/
People complain and shit.

EXPECTED RESULT
They would still complain, except someone would say `hey you actually can do that cool thing`.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:  Fedora 42

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Color scheme switching is tracked with Bug 408563.

Brightness switching is tracked with Bug 413165.

Since we can't mark a bug report as a duplicate of multiple other ones, I'm arbitrarily choosing Bug 413165 to be the parent. In the future, please request only one new feature per fe4ature request ticket. Thanks!
