Bug Description

I find the powermanger OSD pop-up to be too subtle, to the point that I don't usually notice the low battery warning before shutdown. While the small gray box in the top corner is fine for plug/unplug events, it is out of line-of-sight if I'm concentrating on work in the middle of the screen and the warnings are easily missed.

I would suggest at least a colour coding of the pop-up with orange for the low battery warning and red for the shutting down notice, which may make the pop-up more noticable. I would also like the low battery warning to appear in the middle of the screen where I can't miss it.

I agree that at least adding colors would be nice for warnings.
