This might seem a little nitpicky, but for a red/green colorblind person like myself, the yellow and green in those mock-ups are basically indistinguishable to me. Having them right next to the word "connected" or "connecting" makes it easy to see at a glance which it is. Now, if as someone said, we were going to add a lock overlay for encrypted connections, wouldn't that go where the colored circle is currently anyway? (I might also try something like a red triangle pointing down for "disconnected", a yellow circle for "connecting" and a green triangle pointing up for "connected". But these are just random ideas off the top of my head to make it easier to see at a glance for people like myself.) -- 猿も木から落ちる
