Comment 27 for bug 1224756

I would go one step further with the proposed indicator method of letting the user know when an app is recording audio. I would have the indicator-sound icon change to an image of a microphone (or even pop up a new icon) and set the color as red. This would be much more self-evident that recording is taking place than just a red speaker (the first thing that I would think if I saw that without knowing what it meant was that something was broken with my audio).
