Right. It's showing as busy because it's stuck in the timeout to update
the animation. There's currently no AUTH_FAILED state change that gets
propagated to the applet, so it doesn't know that it failed. And the
sync daemon isn't telling the applet that it is OFFLINE either. Though,
an AUTH_FAILED should be available soon, with the state change
refactoring that is being worked on.
