Possible for calibre to show the charging status on a connected Kindle?

I'd like to how far along the charging has progressed before I disconnect it.

File it in the "not really important but nice to have" to-do box.

That info is not available other than looking ON THE KINDLE screen.
(This lack is not limited to the Kindle)
BTW charging from a standard USB port is limited to .5A. Many newer USB-C devices (Tablets and Laptops) have a Turbo mode the rated charge adapters can negotiate (if the devices doe shows 'slow charging', then faster could be gained by using an approved charger).
