With the avatar there could be the problem that you can't see it properly because of the avatars colors for example. I could try to make a thin white line around the icon so this should be solved though.

The reason for my objection was the placement adjacent to presence which could cause trouble when either presence status or personal status will be extended sometime. The overlay can be changed in any direction.

Best solution would be to have special presence icons for mobiles (not overlays) and use them in place of presences. But knowing how long it takes to get new icons...well we could try crafting these ourselves, basically just take the presence icons and cut them in mobile shape. Which I assume will look beyond horrible. I still might try.

As for the presented screenshots (fantastic work Dominik!), for me it's either the original one or the presence icon overlay.
