See battery level when charging, but powered off

If I plug my M50 to power to charge it, nothing shows me what % the battery is at unless I power it on. I'd like to see a % while powered off, if it's being charged.

This is definitely not what I had in mind. Any Garmin Edge device will show a battery icon on screen along with the % of charge level. This way makes it easy to determine if the device is charged or not.
Having to push the power button, only to see the battery, yet no %, is not what I would like to see. There must be a better way of configuring this.

Implemented in FW 2.2.0:
while connected to power source (charging), push POWER ON (side) button, BATTERY indicator is shown on screen temporarily. Device does not boot.

You bet Richard, we are working on this now. We will not release this in the upcoming release, as those features are essentially locked in now, but we will get it in the following release.
