Comment 90 for bug 527458

I understand the intent to simplify the UI in any and all areas possible. We all want Ubuntu to be as accessible as possible -- especially to new users. But the loss of instantly-available data from the indicator applet absolutely ruins workflow. Those of us on netbooks check battery percentage constantly. It is now necessary to click twice and scroll through the detailed power statistics to find % remaining.

I also add my voice to those calling for restoring tooltips to this vital panel. Until then, I plan to move back to Karmic.
