Title:
  There is no feedback when GPS is used, or when a GPS lock is being
  acquired

Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
  Triaged
Status in indicator-location package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The only information the location indicator icon conveys currently is
  whether location detection is enabled at all, when more data could be
  interesting. Especially acquiring a GPS lock is often interesting, as
  this greatly impacts the location accuracy.

  Maybe the location icon should be dimmed when nothing is using it and
  blink when GPS lock is being acquired, bright when the lock is fine?

  The current spec is @ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Location
