Actually, seat power isn't yet truly ubiquitous on American, though
it's becoming more common in their coach cabins over time (I fly
American more than any other airline).
Increased battery life will help, although folks often won't be
entering the aircraft with fully-charged batteries, and it's going to
be a long time before the majority of laptops in use have some sort
of longer-life battery capacity.
And coach is where most people fly. Many business travelers are
forced to fly coach by their travel departments unless/until they
acquire enough frequent-flyer miles to occasionally upgrade, or pay
out of pocket.

Any information security mechanism, process, or procedure which can
be consistently defeated by the successful application of a single
class of attacks must be considered fatally flawed.
