Public bug reported:
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.
