No, not that I know of. You could try writing your own script.
An alternative is to use Simple Brightness Applet, and toggle "Keep display on."

Yes, but I just want it to lit when it is opened, so I have to keep changing that config option all the time.

This sounds like a good idea. It would be nice to be able to separately control timeouts whether the keyboard is open or closed.

You may try dbus-scripts.
Write a script to turn screen on every few seconds while
keybord open. And call this script from dbus-scripts when keyboard opened.
For example:
dbus-scripts setting:
/home/user/stay_lit.sh * * org.freedesktop.Hal.Device Condition ButtonPressed cover
Your script (/home/user/stay_lit.sh)
The TIMEOUT value has to be less than your display blank time.

Is it possible to let the screen always on while the slide is open and return to normal configured screen time out while slide screen is close?
Thanks
