Fire SHOULD (by my understanding, anyway) be disconnecting you from the
services, then reconnecting on sleep. (Don't listen for the machine-gun
door slam for an indication -- I disabled that.)
Detecting the availability of the network would be ideal, but until I figure
out how to do that, your best workaround will be to disable the "reconnect
after sleep" option in the prefs.

Until I get a context menu in there or something, delete either the title or
the message. (I based this off of the assumption that a valid away message
will have both a title and a message.) This isn't intuitive, I know. But
it's also a stopgap solution until I figure out the right way to do it in
the UI.

Yeah, that was the idea. Thought I had it working, too. I'll look into it.
