Public bug reported:
The new indicator panel code (correctly) honors the indicators'
"visible" flag when deciding what to hide from the status bar.
However, it also (incorrectly) honors this flag in the Revealed
Indicators UI. The RTM Usability Fixes document lists that all of our
indicators should be visible there, regardless of whether they're hidden
in the status bar.
IIUC this was one of the original goals of the redesign -- to declutter
the status bar without losing access to the lesser indicators
