targeted this against the actual affected packages, for clarity.

Thomas, it appears that indicator-network is currently *NOT* included in
the Ubuntu Desktop seed.  Is it expected to be?  Currently the package
is in universe, and saucy desktop users do not have it pulled in
automatically.  In fact, on my system I've noticed that nm-applet is no
longer being autostarted, leaving me with no network indicator of any
kind on the desktop.  Is this supposed to be a dependency of the 'unity'
package, like the other indicators are?  (For now, I'll leave the
indicator-network package off of this FFe; once it's confirmed that the
package will be included in the desktop, we can add the bug task.)

Trying to install indicator-network here on my desktop also pulls in
some rather odd dependencies via liburl-dispatcher1:

 The following extra packages will be installed:
   click click-apparmor liburl-dispatcher1 python3-apparmor-click python3-click
   upstart-app-launch url-dispatcher

We probably don't want to pull these into the desktop for 13.10, so
there may be some more work to be done here regarding the dependencies
before this can be seeded.

As for the FFe itself: this sounds fine, in principle.  Can you describe
what steps you're taking to ensure that the changes made to these
indicators don't affect the desktop code path for 13.10?

Title:
  [FFe] Freeze exception for converged indicators

Status in “indicator-bluetooth” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “indicator-datetime” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “indicator-power” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  All indicators on phone, except the networking, are fully converged
  meaning they share the same backend with desktop indicators. While
  we'll be feature complete on the indicator side until FF, we still
  need an exception as the settings application on the phone utilize the
  very same backends. We don't plan to change the code path required for
  the desktop indicators, but only add some more functionality required
  for phone settings. In particular, we're asking for FFe for the
  following packages:

  - indicator-bluetooth
  - indicator-network
  - indicator-location
  - indicator-datetime
  - indicator-power
