Decky Power Tools already offers this, and I believe there's a desktop setting for it as well. Still very nice to have though.
While this is nice, I do hope they consider making it easier to remove and install a new battery for the next iteration of the steam deck.
To clarify, I mean something similar to phones where the backplate can slide off or preferably a panel, secured by a screw, when removed allows direct access to the battery and allows it to be easily swapped out - similar to many kids toys.
To be fair, most phones don't have easily replaceable batteries anymore either. I remember in an interview that one of the steam deck leads said they really wanted an easier to replace battery, but it was a compromise they ended up making. I think they blamed it partially on inexperience with hardware production, and that they hoped to do better on future hardware.
its gonna come back. at least in the eu, phones will be required to support it:)
