Sorry, I just saw this. It should read:

"mouse power management should NOT take priority over OS power
management"

And I'm leaving the word NOT in all caps. I find this to be one of the
most frustrating laptop bugs ever, other than broken keys and poor
touchpads. I could care less about mouse power--unless your mouse lights
up like a xmas tree, that battery will last 2 years.

My laptop battery, on the other hand, runs out several times a day with
heavy use.

Title:
  Mouse with no time remaining estimate showing in preference to battery
  being charged

Status in indicator-power package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  When my laptop battery is in a charging state, but is not fully
  charged, I expect it to be displayed in preference to my mouse, which
  has no time remaining estimate.

  The spec here:

  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Power

  says:

  "If anything is discharging, the menu title should represent the
  component (not battery, but component) that is estimated to lose power
  first. For example, if your notebook battery is estimated to discharge
  in 1 hour 47 minutes, and your wireless mouse battery is estimated to
  discharge in 27 minutes, the menu title should represent the mouse. "

  but there doesn't seem to be any guideline to what happens when a
  battery is being charged.

  I suggest the time remaining to charge a battery should be displayed
  in preference to the power level in a wireless mouse.
