This is just so wrong it's not even amusing.

One of the LAN connections is disabled, and so is grey, the other (WLAN) is
enabled & connected, so is nice and blue.
Now see if you can spot which one of the VPN connections is live and
connected.
Is this a bug? It can't have been an intentional change, can it? Surely it's
meant to be lit up. It's already bad enough having not having a "Show icon
in notification area when connected", and a huge delay on right-clicking the
useless global network status tray icon, but this just adds to the misery.
Oh well. Fingers crossed for SP1.
