Title:
  Icon in indicator-session does not indicate pending updates

Status in Ayatana Design:
  New
Status in The Session Menu:
  Incomplete
Status in “indicator-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The text in indicator-session is correctly reflecting the status of
  updates. But a user can only see that status when clicking on the
  indicator, which, of course is not a natural thing because normally,
  there's no need for the user to do that.

  It would be better if the icon reflects the status by colouring it,
  say yellow. Then the attention is drawn to the icon and everything
  else follows. Colouring this icon is already done when requiring a
  reboot (the icon turns red), so technically and functionally there
  should be no problem.

  As a bonus, the indicator could send a notification, stating the
  existence of pending updates.
