Thanks for your response.  Both the menu bar change and the tool bar  
change (dimming out) are quite reasonable, while I feel uncomfortable  
with the proxy icon change.

But I agree that the proxy icon should be updated in the mini  
buffer.  As you pointed out, my proposal will introduce inconsistency  
under multiple frame environments -- it is easy to delete the buffer,  
which is related to the proxy icon in other frame.
