Good to know. The charging for my devices usually happens when connected to the PC. Or I have the cover closed, so don't see it updating. Or not updating in this case.

Why isn't it good? It seemed to work fine for me all these years. I don't recall any complaints from users. The device is plugged in. It doesn't seem to be a problem waking the device to sync. It doesn't seem to be a problem to wake to refresh the clock. ...

If I put the device to sleep, I expect it to sleep. It should only wake when I ask it to or for important actions. Updating the charge level isn't important. If it was a single wake up when fully charged, that would be different. But, every percent point seems silly.

It sounds like you are proposing the charging circuit itself would have access to the screen and update it?

I don't think it does. But, it is the only way for it to work without waking the device. Strictly, there is no reason why it can't be done. But, I think it is complicated enough that it is unlikely to be done.
