I expierienced this silly 1214/1170 mAh too.
Sadly, no. I proposed it too something about half year ago, but... Eh.

We all knew the mAh values reported by bme are more or less made up. The applet seems to report different percentage values than bme. bme will happily report a percentage that arithmetically doesnt add up with reporting.current/last_full or /design... For compatibility with old applet, using the percentage value reported by bme would probably make more sense.
I religiously agree BUT, we should also consider BME replacement users (AIUI, BME replacement as basic thing for CSSU is a long-term goal - frankly, even now it's more stable than some parts of CSSU), so making it configurable - with defaults as you proposed - would be best thing.

I don't care if config would be obscure gconf entry, or some file in the end of filesystem's universe, as long as I'm not forced to use certain values, just because applet detected something. A compromise defaults are OK, but lets make it configurable too and problem solved - we need less hardcoded things, not more.

Easier things said than done - although it's one-liner in code, convincing Pali is another thing. Even fact, that 100% of his bme-repl beta testers switched to kerio's "fork", wasn't enough to suggest that he may be wrong on this one. Even leaving any reasoning attempts aside
