As helpful as powertutor is at determining what application is consuming power it does nothing to help developers to do anything progromatically about their apps in real time. Sure I can write an app that is going to work great in my lab, or even one that works well in a field test. That is not going to help me when my app is deployed on Google Play. What we really want is to be able to react to the cercumstance of power consumption as it is happening. Real time comparitive analysis of other applications is impossable without this access. It seems without a major investment in 3rd party tools or rooting the phone our hands are tied in this regards. It's confusing. I don't understand why the list has no API. Google, what is the deal? Why the big secret?
