   I don't think we need to do that. In the normal state, the manager information table is displayed with all the information about it. There's nothing to alert the user about. The dialog boxes are visually presented as exceptions to the normal state. If we provide a box under the normal situation, then we break that visual experience and possibly make it harder for the users to notice when the exceptional circumstances do occur.
   
   Besides, we already have a visual indicator of manager normality, with the green icon in the upper-right next to the manager menu item.
