Title:
  inconsistent user experience--orange button doesn't feel like a button

Status in “update-notifier” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-notifier

  When a user clicks on the orange update-notifier button on the panel,
  the "button" ought to exhibit button-like behavior.  More
  specifically, the orange button should depress when clicked, and
  return to normal when mouse button is released.

  The current behavior of the update-notifier button is inconsistent
  because surrounding buttons, such as the logout button (the door
  icon), the volume button, and the date/time button all give
  *immediate* feedback when clicked (whether it's depressing itself,
  calling another window immediately, etc.).  The orange update-notifier
  button, however, can take as long as two whole seconds to respond
  after being clicked on a slow computer.  I have been confused in the
  past whether the button requires a single or double-click to work, and
  as a result several windows were called up at the same time two
  seconds later because I clicked too many times.

  This problem can probably be remedied by giving the user immediate
  feedback that his/her click actually *did* something, such as
  depressing the orange button.
