Bug Description

The new modifications to the battery status applet to make the little icon
display the status is great, but it means that you get exactly the same
information twice when the full status is being displayed.

I'd suggest just removing the large icon functionality entirely, the smaller
icon fits in with the rest a lot better.

Not sure about this, perhaps some people want to use the large one. Do we have
any interest to remove the option ?

If we're keeping the large one, we should revert to the previous static battery
image for the icon while it's displayed.
