[orca-list] repoting the battri status/Orca



hey all!
on linux system there is no such command available to check the battri
status with orca screenreader.
but at the same time screen readers like NVDA and Jaws are having
command to check that. the
Screen reader: NVDA/Jaws
command: insert+shift+B
now I am thinking  that, we should also add this command in Orca but
with some extra thing like reporting network status, conected devices
and many more so that  user always no need to go to the top or bot um
panal to check whether internet is conected  or not, bluetooth is on
or off, hotsport is on or off and many more. then VI person can also
check this quickly.
there is already one option is available to read last notification and
list of notifications, so apart from this we should look on other
system status.

here are few thing wich I feel it should be there:
1. Report system power status:
command: insert+shift+B
announcement: battery level: 44%
if plugged in: charging battery-45%
command: insert+shift+B double click
Detailed information:
announcement: Battery level: 88%, Brightness level: 100%, Volume
level: 60%, night light-on "if it is on only."

2. report network status:
Command: insert+shift+N
if connected to Wi-Fi network:
announcement:  Wi-Fi: My Internet Service: 72%, secure.
if on wired connection:
Announce: network name  and internet access is there or not.
Command: insert+shift+N double click
detailed information:
announcement: Networking-on, Wi-Fi-on, Hotsport-off, not connected to internet.

3. report connected devices and services:
Command: insert+shift+V
Announcement: Bluetooth: on, connected to so and so device.

Note: above listed  options were only for computers with battery.
commands can be change if user wants.
anyone can   add or remove anything to above listed things.
lets think on it and make Orca more powerful Screen reader.
pleasee let me know if I am going wrong anywhere.
