I'm having the same issue as the original poster -- while fully charged, if I set the display brightess to max, or press the brightness-up button while already at max, the "Laptop battery is charged noification pops up below the brightness one. This alone wouldn't be a huge problem, only there's more:
 - the battery notification lasts longer (still minor)
 - when I press and hold the brightness button while already at max, the battery notification seems to queue itself to appear as many times as there were registered presses, which is usually *A LOT* and takes *A LOT* of time. It appears, fades and nearly disappears after several seconds and then pops up again and again. This is highly annoying.

Attached is a g-p-m log for a single brightness-up press
