 The latest spec for the mesh uses only circles as access points/mesh
 portals.  There are no more triangles.  Furthermore, the presence of the
 icon within the home screen should be solely to indicate a connected
 state; when there is no connection, there should be no icon at all here.

 The network icon in Home should never be gray, since gray represents non-
 connected access points.  Instead, it should appear in your own XO colors
 if you are directly connected, or in the colors of another XO acting as a
 mesh portal otherwise.  (When there are several XOs acting as a mesh
 portal for the same access point, the XO who's colors are used are largely
 arbitrary, but it would be great to identify a "preferred" path through
 the mesh if possible.  If the XO who's colors are used leaves the mesh or
 disconnects from the access point, a new set of colors should be chosen
 from the remaining mesh portals.)

 The network icon should have a primary rollover which reveals the name of
 the connection, and when it is a mesh portal, the name of the individual
 acting as the portal beneath that.  When directly connected, its secondary
 rollover should indicate wireless strength via a meter.  It should also
 have an option to "Disconnect."

 Another option to add could be "Make preferred" so that it is chosen over
 others stored within network manager when multiple are available at once.
 Finally, as mentioned in ticket #2467, we may later add a "Register"
 option in order to register with a new school server.
