[Bug 1285951] Re: bluetooth indicator disappears after turning off bluetooth

 

Then this is a bug of design/UX.

1) Why is there an option ON/OFF in the tray icon's dropdown if you can only use OFF?
2) Also, why does it say "Show Bluetooth status in the menu bar" in Bluetooth settings window – when it _only_ shows status when it's on (shows nothing when it's off)?
3) I often turn bluetooth on and off (almost daily), so it's quite inconvenient to have to go to bluetooth settings every time I want it back on (I have to use two different locations to do the same action: switch the state of my bluetooth adapter)

My proposal: in "Bluetooth" settings window replace the "Show Bluetooth
status in the menu bar" with a dropdown: "Always show Bluetooth status
in the menu bar", "Show when on", "Don't show in menu bar".

How do I reach someone responsible for this particular UX design?
