Indicator idea: connected to the power grid / disconnected from the power grid

[lucaboesch]

This is an idea we've talked about in may in Muttenz.
Forgot about it, but now it came to my mind again.
The logs know when or whether a device is or has been connected to the power grid / disconnected from the power grid.

It would be possible to create an indicator with just 0 and 1 which represent disconnected from the power grid / connected to the power grid

Hi Luca,

Thanks for our input, great idea.
I suggest instead of making a whole new indicator out of it, we integrate the "plugged" flag/mark somehow within the existing battery indicator. The battery indicator will then show some additional symbol when the client device is plugged into the power grid. Either an icon or a special character like "90% (=)" where 90% is the battery load and (=) is the "plugged in" symbol.

What do you think?

Brillant. I find this a great proposal.
