Pan/Daniel,

I'd thought of a couple of options to reduce the noise from this status line:
1) add a knob to omit the usage; just report the capacity
2) a knob to set a % threshold remaining, then only report usage when it
   falls below that threshold.
3) only report usage in on a margin (eg: 5%), like Pan has suggested.
4) Option 1 + one of options 2 or 3.

Opinions?
