July (the build I use personally ATM), but that "?" battery display behaviour is already there. BTW: I know that people ever complain about wrong battery display values (not realizing that only an estimation is possible) and that this is the reason for the "?" display, but I personally prefer the old behaviour. Maybe an option for that would be useful ("Display inaccurate battery value after startup: YES/NO").
