Comment 9 for bug 362561

Here is the plan after UDS:
1) Connect/Disconnect to be moved into the presence indicator (the green dot thingy that lets you say whether you are online or offline).
2) Sharing invitations can be handled via the messaging indicator
3) upload/download status to be reported in the upcoming "downloads" indicator that the design team is working on for karmic.

Separately from this bug report about the applet, I think we need a settings dialog for U1 in Settings->Preferences. And, the nautilus plugin is getting split out into a separate package and being rewritten in C.

The applet may optionally be kept around if it is useful for developers, but it will not shown by default.
