Well, you probably want more than simply reporting one battery level, don't 
you?

Actually, you probably want to report the overall battery level... Reporting 
only _one_ battery level is not enough for some systems. In fact, that would 
be nice to have a "powermanagement" dataengine (I don't like the name 
battery), and the applet could use this one or the solidengine to report 
battery level... Depending on the engine it uses you'd focus on one battery, 
or the overall state of the system.

Regards.
