Hi Mark. Please change the Bug Status from "Won't Fix" to "Will Fix".
I am not a geek. I'm just a regular PC user, who wants to get things done on their notebook, with as little fuss as possible. I love the new default themes - including the buttons on the left. But, I will be sticking with Karmic for a while, just to keep ease access to my status indicators - battery life for a road warrior is a primary one. The mono icon just doesn't do it for me. Being able to see, that I have "1 hr and 15 mins" of battery time left by simply hovering over the icon is quick an elegant - particlulary when I am just about to begin a presentation. With out this feature, I would have to do 2 mouse clicks to see the actual time in hrs/mins remaining. As it stands in Karmic, 1 click gives me only a percentage. So my vote is for you to keep "status indicators" as toolips on the panel. The icon should tell the rest of the story - no need for tips about what the icon stands for.
