Actually there is another driver for this, acpi_ac, which could confirm ac power is connected.

Maybe powerstatus can simply show an icon that it is connected via AC then, and remove the warning entirely?

Sounds good,

When there is no battery, the alert does not show up. It only shows if your system has no APM nor ACPI available, in which case there is no use at all for the app. That's why there is a warning, and the app should indeed immediately exit in that case.

It probably should imo. I think the alert that there is no battery is out of place, instead the icon should reflect this. I have many laptops where you can just take out batteries at runtime if you want.
