Weather Report - no background
SUMMARY
BBC web infrastructure is currently blocked in Russia, which led me to discover
that the Weather applet turns completely empty (or if its background is hidden
— even fully transparent).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Relocate to Russia (actually, I don't advice doing that, just cut your
internet connection cable and stay safe).
2. Add a «Weather Report» applet to the desktop.
3. Configure it to use some location provided by «BBC Weather».
4. Wait for it to fail to fetch data (takes up to a minute or so).
OBSERVED RESULT
While the applet's data source tries to fetch some data, the applet shows a
generic cloud icon and a spinner. After some time it stops trying, and shows
amazingly nothing. If applet background is turned off — it's just a transparent
void, see the screenshot attached.
EXPECTED RESULT
Applet should show error description alongside some placeholder (in case… I
don't know — no error description, just an empty string?)
