Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

The indicator applet for the power management displays the status of my battery 
as red.
The red icon with a fill level of about "nothing left" is suitable to imply the 
imminent demise of my laptop's battery.

A closer look at the status reveals: A whopping 1h 10 minutes of runtime left 
(see screenshot).
So WTF is the icon red when there's really a quite a lot of time left? It would 
be ok to display a yellow warning, but red always implies a critical status. 
I'd consider 15 minutes to be a crititcal threshold, but 1h:10m?
