Hi,
bug #284162 is about not being able to see the icon, bug #284596 seems more 
about not being able to see the status, yet another bug might be that the 
network can only be configured by a single user, and another potential security 
bug is that a second user can make use of a network connection opened by the 
first user (maybe locking the screen should optionally close the network 
connection on "secure" connections). That said, I think the problems are all 
fairly clear no matter whether the bugs are grouped into this larger bug, or 
split into specific separate issues (which sometimes leads to information going 
to the wrong reports).

I still think a mode that opens network connections at boot time would
be useful too. A boot time connection with the no-configuration after
the first nm-applet connection (except with that first instance) bug
would mean that no-one would be able to reconfigure the network which is
the case when the network is manually configured.

Thanks,

     Drew Daniels
