This is still a problem with Hardy Beta and all updates to date 2008-04-09 on a Dell Inspiron 1520 with Intel X3100/i965 graphics. Re-marking as confirmed.

The problem is NOT that the LCD doesn't switch off when the lid closes. The problem is that the LCD turns back on again when the lid REMAINS closed but there is external keyboard or mouse activity (eg. USB keyboard, USB mouse).

My workaround continues to correct this behaviour, but only if you only have one X session. My workaround is not good enough.
