Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-network

Upon successful connection to a wireless network an annoying balloon
pops-up advising that it has connected successfully.

There is no need for this balloon to appear, the only time a balloon
would be required is when a user needs to be notified of something. Why
does a user need to be notified that they have been connected to a
wireless network?

It's a small gripe, but the best and worst things in an operating system
are always the small things. Windows XP has a habit of popping-up
balloons for no reason, I would hate to see Ubuntu copy this annoying
practice.

The desktop should be clean and clear, it should invite the user in,
quietly facilitating their work. It should not interrupt the user unless
absolutely necessary. Doing so just makes the experience jarring and
uncomfortable.

This behaviour was seen when coming out of hibernation, at that point
the wireless should have reconnected and 'just worked'.
