When users presses the "battery" hotkey for battery info they get "(null) not present"

Why is this "High"? I agree the "(null) not present" information needs to go away, but the battery information is displayed. Classifying as Medium.

This is for sure subpar fit and finish. I really hope we can fix this. Agree that we won't stop the release for it though.

I checked that this is a bug in our appindicator patch, not upstream.
