Is that a mistake? The text indicates which user is logged in. That
might be important in many cases, such as a shared computer in an office
or in a family. The icon should indicate your availability like it does
in 11.04. Then they actually are two different indicators for two
different aspects of the same entity, and hence it makes sense to let
them share one menu.
