could people stop reassigning that to gnome-panel and gnome-applets
that's not the right component, the notification area is a container and
it's not its fault if other applications are abusing it

2009-08-31 Thread mac_v
Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention. However, a paper cut
should be a small usability issue, in the default Ubuntu 9.10 install,
that affects many people and is quick and easy to fix. So this bug can't
be addressed as part of this project.

-nm-applet, gnome-power-manager, sound-preferences, and bluetooth are all 
notifications , I'm not sure what your reasoning is here! These do notify the 
status of the devices.
-gnome-power-manager by default does not use  the notification area unless the 
user has set it up specifically.
-nm-applet , for wireless/mobile users , is very essential notification of the 
signal strength.
-sound-preferences and bluetooth can be removed from the notification area from 
the startup items list, for users who use them they are notifications of the 
status/level of volume.
-And tracker does not use the notification area in Karmic. 
Every other app which uses the notification area, is in the area because of the 
user's preference and can be removed if the user does not want to view them.

For further information about papercuts criteria, please read
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PaperCut.

The only issue here is the nm-applet which is the only app which cannot be 
configured. For wired users this would still indicate the status when 
disconnected.
This would be a bug only with nm-applet. Kindly re-assign it to nm-applet.

Hi mac_v,

The Gnome HIG clearly states that a program does not belong in the
notification area if clicking your notification area icon does anything
other than opening a window directly associated with the icon (e.g. a
mail folder window for a new mail icon, or a print queue window for
printer notification icon)

It states that such functionality belongs with an applet.

gnome-applets doesn't use the notification area but is a collection of
applets as the name indicates

It might be more than a paper cut as it affects many packages, and could
involve a lot of work depending on how each package is handling the
notification area.

I think this qualifies as a paper cut.
