If the 0x1000 Unified Battery Level Status feature exists, expose the

The main drawback is that while a device is plugged in its battery
level is 0.
To avoid exposing that as 0% charge we make up a number based on the
charging
status.
This will require changes in UPower, so that it doesn't try to access
the Logitech unifying devices via user-space, and uses the data from
the kernel. Did you already file a bug?

Note that this would also mean losing the "lux" information, but I
don't think that's something we're that interested in exposing.

For example, for a keyboard that recharges via solar panels, at night:
