I do not mean that in a way that is harmful, and I feel that this is probably due to the fact that it IS developing software. Nonetheless, I took a little time to make a mockup of my own wishes for the future of indicator-network. My mockup is attached below. Feel free to give criticism and comments, I like feedback.

The current network indicator is big, inefficient, and cluttered. Your mockup looks really good. However, I think mpt's proposed design below solves your problems.

However, I like your idea of showing the IP address. Perhaps that could be added to this setup.
