For a system running on battery, it'd be okay to throw in power down at ~30% 
or whatever user configurable percentage, in my opinion. If such a thing were 
to be implemented, I'd suggest defaulting to 30% on battery powered systems, 
and, in that one instance, it'd probably be okay to change it to that from the 
default behavior.
