[Bug 1383855] [NEW] Inconsistent icons across reboot

 

Public bug reported:

If I have no SIM in the phone and disable wifi; I get a different icon
before rebooting (the cog) than after a reboot (wifi - no signal).

Across reboots, I'd expect to see the same icon in indicator-network --
since the device's state is exactly the same.

I don't think the cog is a very significative icon to convey any meaning
of status for a network; it's more likely to be more significant to
users to display a no-signal icon when we're in a state where there is
no other icon to display (given that indicators need to have an icon
set).
