Enum Mood 

pub enum Mood {
    Settled,
    Working,
    Look,
    AtRisk,
    Danger,
}

What the icon is saying, which for most people is the whole of this tool’s interface.

One question, answered continuously: is my work safe. Somebody who never opens the menu and never reads a notification should still be able to glance at the clock and know the answer, and a person who learns to ignore it entirely is the success case rather than a failure.

Ordered, because the icon can only be one colour and what it shows is the worst thing currently true.

Variants

Settled

Watching, and everything that was saved has landed.

Working

A save is on its way back into its container. Seen for a moment and gone.

The least important of these and the one most worth having. Pressing Save and seeing nothing happen anywhere is what makes a person doubt the tool is running at all, and it is the first thing that was noticed missing. It sits below the warnings because a flicker must never hide one.

Look

Worth a look, with nothing at risk: a decision waiting, or a container that did not open because the desktop had nothing to open it with.

AtRisk

Work that is not in its container — a write-back that failed, or a container that moved out from under a session. The one thing this tool promises is that a save reaches the container, and this is that promise outstanding.

Danger

Danger, and nothing else may use it or it stops meaning anything. Today that is one thing: a content file that is a program wearing a document’s name.
