Good as a mock up, bad in practice. Coloring creates contrast issues. Not
having the "shields" may leave an app disconnected from a badge if it's not
square. The squared dots are inconsistent with indicator "now running"
chevrons and, while I like the grouping thing.... pretty sure Apple might
be more than a little angry over pilfering that look.
