The network indicator shows when it's busy configuring the interface.
If you want the indicator to provide more information then that's a

Bug description:
  Today Network Manager only gives you two bubbles and a swirl to give
  you some indication of what it is doing when connecting to a network.
  This does not give the users any info to what is going on.

  This is a request to have some notification to the user of what
  network manager is doing.

  The case of connecting to a wireless network for example. Whould have
  a notification of "Associating to AP <blah>" , then "Getting Network
  Address", then it would show "Connected to AP <blah>"

  For the case of a wired connection you would have a notification of 
"Connected to wired network", then "Getting Network Address", then it would 
show "Connected to wired network".
   
  That is the basic idea.
