Bug Description
open the Connection Information window accessible via
Indicator Menu Network > Connection Information
keep it open in the foreground and change the connection
observe that not all fields are being updated, but "Speed:" is.
The title of this window is "Active Network Connections".
This is incorrect, since the first field of this listing ( Connection Name ) is never updated.
I'd have to close the window and re-open it again in order to see the updated value.
OTOH, Connection Speed updates in realtime, suggesting that i'm looking at all active|live|current information.
This is misleading.
Either the title "Active Network Connections" should be removed entirely to be replaced with the first field in the listing ( Connection Name ) itself, or the values shown in the Window "Connection Information" should all be live and instantly updated.

Not currently being done. The current state of things requires that you close Connection Information if you want all the information to be updated.
