Bug description:
  spawned from efforts in bug 1336715

  because the user's input toggle for airplane mode is both a reflection
  of user intent & the state of the backend....and the backend is
  unfortunately variable & lengthy to change (anywhere from 1 to ~10+
  seconds sometimes) we need to have an intermediate/transition
  state....e.g. toggle to airplane mode on....then animate somehow that
  there's a transition happening, until it either fails/succeeds

  comment from dizzypaty

  Between the user’s action of toggling the airplane switcher on and/or
  off and the backend updating the state, the indicator icon displayed
  on the statusbar should be the following: network-idle.svg
