I'm not sure I understand your point, do you mean that users are going to use the battery applet to type a message on why they don't want the box to suspend automatically? And then come back when they're done to disable the inhibition again? If yes, I'm sorry but that looks like feature creep to me, and also giving the user the right tool to do bad stuff (like if the user forgets to disable it after having his daily fix of junk on youtube his box will go to critical level of the battery before suspending)... I think that I'm really not in love with such a thing (at least in an such a proeminent applet of the default installation).
