Battery power icon charge status feedback

In FC6, when on AC power, the battery icon provided some feedback regarding the charge status. As the battery was charging, the icon would show a progressively full battery.
Now, in FC6, the charge icon appears to be a static image, and I must move the cursor on top of it to see the battery's charge status.
Am I the only one who finds this a backwards step? By following certain charge/discharge practices, I find that I can greatly prolong my laptop's battery. After 4-5 months of heavy use, it did not seem to have lost any noticable capacity. To do that, I rely on the battery's charge status, and I used to be able to simply monitor it out of a corner of my eye, but now I need to mouse over it.
Is there anything in FC7 that will pop up a window anytime the battery's charge exceeds or drops below a configurable level?
