Batt indicator bug still exists as tested in 20.04. See attached screencasts taken with,
1. indicator applet
2. indicator applet complete

This bug seems to be fixed in 21.04. I am not seeing it anymore on 21.04.

Indeed, I'm running the daily build and toggling the percentage setting on and off has the expected result.
