I actually have no complaints about the current situation (therefore 
have reported no bugs) , however here's what can probably be done : 
change between idle (all seeding/poused) and active (some downloading)  
aand ... I haven't got much more ideas , since the icons are very small 
and not many states can be shown (probably throw in an "inactive" state).
 Again I don't think it's that necessary , and it's going to be hard to 
combine them with the icons themselves . Say transmission can have the 
arrow pointing in different directions , or have two arrows when 
seeding/downloading , but I don't know about about inactive . Deluge can 
change colours (blue inactive , green downloading , red seeding , or 
something like that) , but that's not perfect too .
