* \page enhance Enhancements
* \section enhance_sec All planed or to be discussed enhancements/ enhancement requests.
*
* \subsection enhance_device_powermanagemnt Runtime device powermanagement
*	\b [Priority: \b M] (for v0.8) \n \n
*	Add device/runtime powermanagement to KPowersave and make it scheme specifi configurable via
*	the configure dialog. At least allow this for 'Advanced Powersave' scheme. \n \n
*	The powersave interface for this feature already exist, now we should allow the user to 
*	change it. \n \n \n
*
* \subsection enhance_CPUhotplugging CPU Hotplugging
*	\b [Priority: \b M] (for v0.8) \n \n
*	Add CPU hotplugging to KPowersave. Allow enable/disable CPUs/Cores on multiprocessor/multicore 
*	machines. We need scheme specific configuration. (translations and needed strings are already
*	added to KPowersave) \n \n \n
*
* \subsection enhance_configure_display Display battery and CPU informations in the configure dialog
*	\b [Priority: \b I] (for v0.8) \n \n
*	It would be really usefull to display all known information about the current state of the machine
*	and powersave/KPowersave in a new page in the configure dialog. This enclose CPU, Battery and 
*	current scheme.\n \n \n
*
* \subsection enh_ControlCenter_plugin Plugin for the KDE Control Center 
*	\b [Priority: \b D] \n \n
*	It would be really usefull and easier/plainer for the user to add the configuredialog also to the 
*	KDE Control Center. By this we can remove the klaptop-plugin under SUSE from the Control Center by
*	default. So the user would be no longer confused through the klaptop plugin, which is obsolete under 
*	SUSE. \n \n 
*	We maybe also can move some/all of the powersave YaST-dialog to the dialog. We can use 'Administrator
*	Mode' to protect this settings. This would be usefull for other distributions. \n \n \n 
*
* \subsection enh_tooltip Tooltip
*	\li \b CPU \b Tooltip \b like \b kicker \b mouseover \b effects \n \n 
*	\b [Priority: \b I] \n \n
*	I like the nice mouseover effects on Kicker. Unforunately there is currently no QWidget for this.
*	If we would implement this we need to adapt the wifget from amarok/src/tracktooltip.cpp.
*
*       \li \b Battery \b estimated \b empty \b at \b xx:yy \b in \b Tooltip \n \n 
*	\b [Priority: \b I] \n \n
*       It would be nice to be to know when (estimated) the battery is empty and not only to know remaining hours.
*
*	\li \b Optional \b full \b information \b Tooltip \n \n 
*	\b [Priority: \b I] \n \n
*	We need a optional "amarok-like" Tooltip to display more of the already existing and collected information 
*	like current scheme, battery state, battery fill state, cpu freq ... and a icon/picture representing the
*	current battery state. There should be a option in the configure dialog to switch beetween the normal and
*	the enhanced tooltip.
*
*       \li \b CPU \b Temperature \b in \b Tooltip \n \n 
*	\b [Priority: \b D] \n \n
*       It would be nice to be able to add the current CPU temperature to the tool tip. We maybe could get this
*       information from powersave or we need to poll a configured path in /proc/acpi/* . The user should be
*	able to configure if he would like use this new or the normal tooltip. The best would be to read 
*	the settings by default from the kicker settings and add also an own kpowersave option.
*
* \subsection enh_osd On Screen Display 
*	\b [Priority: \b F] \n \n
*	It would be usefull to have configureable OSD to display permanent or event-based information for
*	the user on the display. Possible displayed events: 
*	\li daemon.scheme.change
*	\li acadapter.offline, acadapter.online
*	\li battery.normal (full charged ), battery.warning, battery.low, battery.critical
*	\li battery.info (displayed as permanent only)
*	\li temperature.hot, temperature.critical
*	\li processor.performance, processor.powersave, processor.dynamic
*	\li cpu freq (displayed as permanent only ) \n \n
*
*
* \n \n
* \section design All to discuss and research design enhancements
*
*
* \n \n \n \n 
* \subsection LEGEND LEGEND
*	\b Priority:
*	\li \b M (Mandatory): \n \n 
*			      The stable release shipment will be dependant on this component being included
*			      within the release.\n \n
*	\li \b I (Important): \n \n 
*			      Adds significant features. Important features are stretch targets for this
*			      release. Important features will become mandatory in the next release cycle.\n \n
*	\li \b D (Desirable): \n \n 
*			      Adds considerable value. Desirable features are targets of opportunity for 
*			      this release. Desirable features may or may not become mandatory features 
*			      over time.\n \n
*	\li \b F (Future):    \n \n 
*			      This requirement has been deferred to a future release. It is listed for
*			      informational purposes so that product development may make informed
*			      architectural choices.\n \n
*	\li \b R (Rejected):  \n \n 
*			      This requirement was suggested, but rejected as not in harmony with the value
*			      proposition or positioning of the project. It will never be fulfilled.\n \n
