Thank you :)

This is indeed our plan! Now, there are a few non-trivial blockers, so
it's not something that can possibly happen in the next few days (in
time for Tails 2.0) or even weeks (in time for the Tails release that
comes after 2.0). Some of these blockers are on our side, and being
worked on. Some other blockers are on the GNOME side, and we'll get in
touch wit you folks at some point about them.

In GNOME Shell 3.14, these icons appear in the notification area on
the bottom right of the screen, which makes them 1. not visible by
default (which is problematic for some of the icons we're talking of
here); and 2. harder, if not impossible, to interact with.

OK, thanks! I'll try this when I come back to it in a few days.
Feel free to forward my call for help there if you can + want to help
us get this moving faster :)

I can totally understand this, considering the place you're speaking
from.
