would it be wise to document all the best practices in one place though?
also for applications to be well behaved, they should know something
about their environment
to that end should know where to look for the charging status for instance
if the devices have a power profile available, the api to access this
should be documented and clearly stated
I believe that sort of information is what Narendranath Ghosh was requesting.

correct me if I am wrong.
