Battery notes inhibition firefox video-playing
SUMMARY
Inhibition reasons are not designed to be user-facing? Or at least they are
mis-used by app developers.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Play video in VLC
2. Play video in firefox
OBSERVED RESULT
Firefox reports inhibition reason as "audio-playing".
VLC reports localized "Воспроизведение мультимедиа." with a dot at the end.
Both look poor, for example, in the battery applet of Plasma. Especially the
dot at the end, since it displayed in (parenthesis.)
EXPECTED RESULT
Inhibition reasons should be uniform, localized, and user-friendly.
