Piotr: the computer can't know that you never plan to use that slot.

I agree that having an empty bay bring the total down to 50% is wrong. I'm not sure if I agree with completely hiding empty bays.
I was thinking that I'd want to see whether the laptop was plugged in even if no batteries were in... and then realised just how little sense that makes. :) ok, maybe ignoring empty bays isn't such a bad idea.

I think it would also be nice to have the option to show one specific battery - that would allow you to put your batteries in different places on your desktop if you liked, too. but this would be a separate feature request. :)
