Comment 4 for bug 439743

Jaunty had a _clear_ indication of status changes. The current one is rather confusing. I can look at the top corner and immediately tell what my status is. It's very hard to do that with Karmic.

Of course, I'd rather just leave things the way they are. It wasn't broke, so don't fix it. But it seems that the Ayatana team want this bubble. :)

See the screens for a more unified feel. It's easier to differentiate, though it's a bit small and there isn't enough contrast between the symbol and bubble. But that's my mockup's problem :). I think this is better, but possibly not the best way to depict status. But with a text bubble so small and no color to go with, what else are we able to do?
