If anything else handled the SIM PIN, I could enter it without the
network indicator running, then I could turn off wi-fi in System
Settings again without the network indicator running.

To summarize, I think:
1) unity8 should not contain any specific code for the SIM PIN dialog, because it has nothing to do with the shell in particular, and dialogs in general belong in the toolkit rather than the shell;
2) indicator-network should not contain any specific code for the SIM PIN dialog (even though it is one of the access points for the dialog), because indicator-network should not need to be running when the dialog is shown;
3) therefore, the code should be in a separate SIM service.

This SIM service might also be responsible in future for displaying
appropriate UI when a SIM is inserted, removed, or remotely locked.
