I bet you could talk to dobey about the process for submitting new icon 
names to the spec. He's usually dobey in #tango on freenode.

Not knowing who pointed you there - I would suggest bringing this up 
with dobey as well. My assumption is that the names would be something 
like status-power-(string from the gpc icons). So for example:

status-power-primary-060-charging
status-power-suspend (altho this icon begs me to ask, if your machine 
was suspended how would you ever be able to see this icon? ;) )
