@Vish

I'm not sure I understand your request for further comment?

The issue is that the icon displayed in the applet's menu doesn't do a
good job of conveying the fact that an available network is "adhoc" (
which means it's another computer providing the network as opposed to an
access point ).

The feeling is that removing this indication could be a potential
security risk ( think man-in-the-middle attack ).

The thought was that we need some user testing before committing to a
re-design.

"Ad hoc connection" icon in the network menu is very confusing
