The majority of people won't drive enough to need a charge every night. I think people in general get too hung up on thinking the battery should be at 100% all the time. It's healthier for the vehicle is the battery sits below maximum charge anyway.
Consider this - if charging plugs become commonplace, you will get enough charging time when you go shopping or run errands that you won't need to charge at home.
