The design for this aims for it to be clearer.  Check out fig. 9a-9c

Most of these messages are supposed to be passive confirmation  
messages that should be timed and require no user input.  Scott and I

The design aims to make the distinction clearer.  Check out fig. 9d > http://devserv.devel.redhat.com/~tallen/design/
I think this was a post-summit improvement also.  Scott?
