Can't remove resolutions from list and LED back light still on after disabling monitor #66

Hi First time poster here and I just found this brilliant app, due to LG's stupid idea for not putting an off button on the LG Ultrafine 5K monitor...... 😡 Thank you creator for this app.

Here are 2 issues I have found in regards to using this app:

1) There's a huge list of resolutions, most of which I will never touch. I am aware that in "manage" you have the ability to choose which resolutions are to be listed, but upon unchecking a whole heap of them, some of them come back as checked... ODD!!

2) When I disable the LG external monitor, the monitor image turns to black 👍 BUT!!! the LED back lighting says on! so technically not off at all and still eats unnecessary power. Yes I could just unplug the monitor, but my matchbook wouldn't be charging then (which is really the whole point).

If issue 2 can be looked into for a fix, that would be super fantastic! Issue one isn't really much of a deal breaker.

Anyways, good work!!

P.S. I'm running on MacOS Sierra 10.12.3
