Just one more idea regarding the behaviour of the icon.
Imagine you are using a mobile device (notebook, netbook) and you want to disconnect from wireless. How can you tell if all transfers to/from UbuntuOne are completed?
Other scenario: You drop a large amount of files into your UbuntuOne folder shortly before you shut down your machine. Is it save to shut down or are still some transfers going on?
Or some one else drops some files in a shared folder and you go offline before UbuntuOne has downloaded all the files.

In my opinion the icon should always be there, telling you that you are in sync with UbuntuOne. This gives a better feeling than "I don't see anything, so it could be OK... or not?".
