Hi Marco, thanks for this – this is really a great workaround for as long as the fix isn't included in the kernel.
When I use this boot parameter (on a Folio 13-2000) UPower recognizes un/plugging of the ac adapter and the special keys (brightness +/- and wireless adapter toggle) are working.

The charging laptop symbol remains. Power-statistics also becomes unresponsive/empty of data. Powertop recognises the unplug, but Jupiter which I have installed does not. If I suspend and resume or restart, the fact that I am on battery power is once again recognised.
