Public bug reported:
In Ubuntu 17.04 and earlier, I was able to display the amount of battery
life remaining AS TIME in the top bar of my screen.
Now all I'm able to display, in 17.10, is the battery percentage.
Frankly, I don't give a flying fig about battery percentage, and I'm not
sure most other people do either. What I care about is how much time I
have left to work on my laptop before it's out of power.
If you want to display _both_ the percentage and the time remaining, or
allow the user to choose which to display, that would be great. But just
taking away the eminently useful time remaining and replacing it with
the much less useful percentage is annoying and should be fixed.
