[Matthew Paul Thomas <mpt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just discussed this with Benjamin. Implementing the new access method
for indicator menus (bug 1368856) would fix this bug: then you would
always be able to get to both location and Bluetooth, regardless of
which of the indicators were visible.

An alternative fix, which could be implemented independently, is to hide
the location access indicator altogether for RTM. As Charles pointed
out, it isn't fit for purpose, and its presence in RTM would make its
meaning confusing even after that was fixed.

** Changed in: ubuntu-ux
       Status: Triaged => Fix Committed

** Changed in: ubuntu-ux
     Assignee: Vesa Rautiainen (vesar) => Matthew Paul Thomas (mpt)

** Description changed:

  There is inconsistency between the bluetooth indicator and the location
  indication. Currently (image #171):
  
  - if location+GPS are disabled, the indicator persists.
  - if bluetooth is disabled, it disappaears.
  
  Which behaviour is correct?
  
  Further, even if the location indicator behaviour is correct, surely we
  should consider "greying out" the indicator so that the user can see at
  a glance that that indicator is disabled?
+ 
+ ------------
+ Desired resolution: either implement the new indicators access method (bug 1368856); or hide the location indicator altogether until it can be implemented as specced; or both.
