Thinking about this more, I would just like to add: if you're pre-planning / -conceiving your shoot and have the time, by all means, top off your batteries before you go.
But this doesn't cover all reasonable scenarios.
"Oh my, look at the morning: this would be a good time to go out and capture <fabulous object> in the early light!"
"Sorry, no can do. The batteries haven't been topped off for a couple of days, so we have to wait at least an hour or two."
I don't know about the rest of you, but I travel with 5 batteries, so if a few are one bar down under load, I still have plenty of juice. If I can only put a load on each for 15 minutes, that's still over an hour of flying time.
I also have a large (car-sized battery) charger, which can charge batteries in the car while I'm out flying with other batteries.
Don't be grounded because you're scared to go out with anything short of "newly topped off" batteries!
