 and obvious way to turn off all the wireless equipment for use on
 airplanes.  Merely going to the icons in the Frame and turning each of
 them off *should* suffice.

 one to turn the radio off/on.  There is still #7690, but I think it's
 ancillary to your main concern right now.

 I take it you knew about that option.  So are you saying that it's not
 obvious enough?  I tend to agree that it'd be nice if the "Turn off" mesh
 icon palette entry should turn off the radio, to make it easier.  But as
 we've been discussing in #7690, that design has not been accepted.  As I
 mentioned there, if we want to get anything changed we should probably
 take the (general) discussion out to sugar@ or devel at .
