Not sure if I have awesome ideas :)
But I'm happy to share what I have.
I prefer to have my personal config in my $HOME, and to define a
separate theme:
% ls -1 ~/.config/fdpowermon
theme.cfg
theme.pl
== theme.cfg ==
[gregoa]
steps = 11
dir = /usr/local/share/icons/gnome-colors-common/22x22/notifications
discharging =
9:notification-battery-000.png,19:notification-battery-010.png,29:notification-battery-020.png,39:notification-battery-030.png,49:notification-battery-040.png,59:notification-battery-050.png,69:notification-battery-060.png,79:notification-battery-070.png,89:notification-battery-080.png,99:notification-battery-090.png,100:notification-battery-100.png
charging =
9:notification-battery-000-plugged.png,19:notification-battery-010-plugged.png,29:notification-battery-020-plugged.png,39:notification-battery-030-plugged.png,49:notification-battery-040-plugged.png,59:notification-battery-050-plugged.png,69:notification-battery-060-plugged.png,79:notification-battery-070-plugged.png,89:notification-battery-080-plugged.png,99:notification-battery-090-plugged.png,100:notification-battery-100-plugged.png
== theme.pl ==
my $theme = fdpowermon::theme::get_theme("gregoa");
$theme->set_event( 0, \&action_discharging, 'd' );
sub action_discharging {
my ( $percent, $state ) = @_;
#print STDERR "percent: $percent, state: $state\n";
return unless defined $state && $state == 0; # discharging
return unless defined $percent && $percent <= 5;
system("lock-hibernate");
}
1;

I'd rather put the example files as examples into
/usr/share/doc/fdpowermon/examples/ instead of into the manpage.
Copying files is simpler than copying text out of formatted *roff :)
I guess, without having tested it now, that a simple
/usr/share/doc/fdpowermon/examples/theme.pl like that should be
/enough:
===
# Copy this file to ~/.config/fdpowermon/theme.pl.
#
# If you don't like the 'default' theme, define a new one by copying
# /etc/fdpowermon/theme.cfg to ~/.config/fdpowermon/theme.cfg and
# renaming/adjusting the 'default' theme there to something new.
# Don't forget to replace "default" below with your new theme name.
# define a suspend action
sub suspend {
system("sudo pm-suspend");
}
# initialize our theme, from /etc/fdpowermon/theme.cfg or
# ~/.config/fdpowermon/theme.cfg
my $theme = fdpowermon::theme::get_theme("default");
# on the first discharge event (0 = first in the index, "d" for
# discharge), call the "suspend" sub defined above
$theme->set_event( 0, \&suspend, 'd' );
===
Reading through the manpage again it seems accurate; but I guess
that's easier to say after having found out how to write the .cfg and
.pl files :)
(And I remember that I needed some tries initially. But I think that
was before Wouter spelt out the necessary steps.)
Cheers,
gregor
