Well, the exported battery might be sending levels instead of
pourcentages. And upower needs to be upgraded to handle those :(

Bastien, is is possible to have a simple udev rule that tells upower to
ignore the battery device if builtin_power_supply is there?
That way we can tell people running old upower to use this to be sure to
ignore the kernel device and just rely on the upower hidpp support?
