This kind of interface is getting quite know, because lot a web services
use it to autosync.
But anyway, maybe it's better to have something to perform to enable, so
the user can feel more the states. On the other end, I really would like
to have a very quick way to start :
- I plug my Tails USB stick
- I write my passphrase
- I click [enter]

I agree with the idea to have an iconic feedback, but maybe :
- the padlock is not
- the icon + text is too heavy

I think there is no enable at this state. A light gray unclickable
enable maybe.

I think it should be possible to disable at this state.
