We already kinda show exclamation mark on the wifi icon, it's just that the 
connectivity is not updated everytime and needs to be perhaps forced everytime 
we connect to a new network. 

Showing a notification is a good idea, that's why I added more people 
(including usability) to even start a discussion about that and implement it 
the best possible way. For now I implemented it the same way as Gnome does.
