Ok, it works but only once the user opened the menu once.

The textual battery plugin is at
http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4499

I just opened the “adaptative” stuff at
http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5216

Yeah, that'd be nice so one wouldn't need the plugin if he already use
xfpm. Same thing would do for the brightness one, I guess scroll up/down
on the systray icon could be interpreted as commands. That way, people
which don't want/need xfpm could just use the plugins, but people having
xfpm running wouldn't need the plugins.
