Bug 95582 – [Gtk] Add Battery Status API support

• Component: WebKitGTK
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[José Dapena Paz]

Battery Status API allows web applications to track power status of the device. It allows to behave different depending on that (i.e. avoid expensive calculations or polling if battery is low and discharging).

Specs: http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/dap/raw-file/tip/battery/Overview.html

It'd be nice to figure this issue out. Also, not sure we want to add new features in WK1 at this point :/

The specification is a candidate recommendation so I think it would be great if we can get the implementation up and working.

I think this is simply a matter of exporting the undefined symbols, nothing uncommon really.

Oops. I didn't notice this movement supporting BatteryStatus before.. :p
What's going on this? 
I've also worked a patch for this feature. If you guys don't mind, I'd like to post my patch somewhere. :)

[Zan Dobersek]

Shame about the duplicated work.

My set of patches is complete, but still requires reviewing. The patches are spread in the bugs that are blocking this one.

[Zan Dobersek]

Aaand it's done.
