It is easy and fast to detect the messaging indicator (by design, so that apps can check and behave accordingly). I agree that upstream will want to think carefully about how to behave when the indicator isn't there, and we should support them in that, but focus our design conversation on the standard experience in Ubuntu which is the one with the messaging indicator.
