And these will be the same as everywhere else (presence drop-down, presence plasmoid etc) so it should get the user some clue. The background icon can change significantly, although it's such a specific icon that I think it would stay mostly similar. That and plus the tooltip should work. At least before we get our own icon.

Any change this large for 0.2 should have been done ages ago (i.e before hard freeze). So no.

Since there is no good icon, I've "created" my own by taking the "view-sort-ascending" and painting two small overlays over it. See the screenshot.
