[Bug 829690] Re: No easy way to turn the Bluetooth menu on/off

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

** Description changed:

  Problem occurs with: gnome-bluetooth 3.1.4-0ubuntu1, Ubuntu Ocelot
  Does not occur with: Ubuntu 11.04
  
  1. Try to work out how to hide the Bluetooth menu. (For example, your
  computer has a Bluetooth card but you never use it.)
  
  What happens: There's no obvious way to do it.
  
  What should happen: "At the bottom of the “Bluetooth” panel in System
  Settings should be a checkbox, “Show Bluetooth status in the menu bar”.
  It should be checked by default for a new user account, but should be
  sensitive only when there is a powered Bluetooth card or dongle.
  Whenever the checkbox is sensitive and checked, a Bluetooth menu should
  appear in the menu bar."
  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bluetooth#specification>
  
+ This is an example of the general pattern described in
+ <https://design.canonical.com/2012/04/status-menus/>: "If you never use
+ a Bluetooth device, you shouldn’t need to see the Bluetooth menu. And so
+ on."
+ 
  Ubuntu 11.04 has an equivalent checkbox, so this is a regression.
