external light sensors

Hello developer. Could you please add a new feature to support external light sensors for automatically adjusting display brightness? Similar to Lunar on macOS?

Not a developer, but the solution does not really require the developer to do anything.

If you have a light sensor that provides raw luminance data via virtual serial port or something like that (DIY like in the case of Lunar or with a standard smart home light sensor and a USB ZigBee adapter to insert into your PC), then you can write an automation script via AutoHotKey (AHK) or AutoIt to read the data and then use the TwintkleTray command line support to adjust the brightness accordingly.

Thumbs up for the Developer to support this directly. Would make it much easier to support external ambient light sensors like this: https://lunar.fyi/sensor
