The display on the panel has two terminal-like images but only monitors a 
single interface.  If, as I suspect, the two "terminals" are intended to 
display input and output, you might want to use different colors or something 
to differential between input and output.

I did notice a small problem (I will try to remember to bugzilla it later) -- 
when you bring up the applets properties and hit the configue button, it 
invokes network configuration but does not switch to root first.
