The WirelessNetworkView listens on the State signal of the device, so it 
is true that all the icons are updated when the device state changes. 
This could be optimized in general.

Gonzalo's patch does not do anything different than the existing code. 
So, I am happy with his patch. As it is a regression over 0.92 I am good 
with pushing it as well to the 0.94 branch.
