This is a serious thing to allow in a "stable" release.
The first many users are going to see of this is their notebook will shutdown without warning in the middle of some vital work.
Restarting their notebook and it will continue as normal (on second battery).
It may take some users MANY cycles to realize there is a problem.
Much important work may be lost and stability feeling of ubuntu will be badly harmed.
This is definitely something that should be in the stable release.
I thought the idea of getting bunnies like me to try the unstable release was to make sure that less-technical users would not get bitten by such issues.
