Could you build this?

Partial The battery UI is simple, but reading battery levels from 2.4 GHz wireless peripherals depends on vendor-specific, often undocumented HID or dongle protocols.

What it would actually take: Each supported device needs its protocol reverse-engineered from USB captures, which requires USB and HID knowledge plus hardware access to test on real peripherals. The app layer, such as a tray or menu-bar UI and notifications, is standard. Coverage grows device by device.
