Light - turn off vs brightness value

@maxym wrote:

When the dimmable light is being turned off, its brightness bar goes to zero. Then when I turn on the light, the brightness bar sets to the state reported by the light.

I checked MQTT finding out that the brightness value doesn’t change when the light is turned off (Shelly Dimmer). So it seems to be HA implementation responsible for this UI behaviour.

Is it possible (somehow) to make brightness bar represent brightness reported in MQTT always, regardless light state?
Or maybe there are some limitations or user cases I’m not aware of? Would like to know them if any.
Thanks
