go to settings and then backlight timer... you can chose to have it on any number of seconds after you last touched a button, or always on

If you want to turn your "blacklight" on wouldn't you wait until it's dark outside or turn off the room lights? Well I guess then everything would look black, just kidding, now I gotta get "black" to work :)

Actually I understand exactly what the original poster is asking for. I don't want the backlight to come on a number of seconds every time I push a button, I just want to control how long it stays on when I manually turn it on...
I rarely turn on the backlight, but when I do I'm likely in an airplane, etc, and need it to stay on for at least 30 seconds.
Such an option would be very appreciated by myself (and apparently others).

Exactly, I don't use the backlight very often, and when I do, I turn it on manually for extended periods of time when browsing my songs in the dark. It becomes really annoying when I need to turn the backlight back on every 20 seconds or so.

Just set it to "always on".
Then use the "hold menu" function to manually turn the backlight on/off. When it's off, it stays off until you hold the menu button again where it stays on until you turn it off manually again.

if you need to turn the back light on but save battery power hit menu and hold it. it will turn off in like 15 secs
