Not really sure how you are basing the "more useful" here, but I'd have to 
disagree with the current bug report. 
What is the first thought that pops into your head when you see " NN% 
remaining"? 
Alteast, in my head it is, "oh! that would be approximately nn mins left or 
maybe something closer" But I'm always not exactly sure what the percentage 
really relates to.

>From reading the bug report it seems the problem here is "number fluctuates 
>way too much ... and is therefore distracting" , 
maybe we should be looking into fixing the update interval and not how the time 
is displayed.
