Comment (by saint):

 As arlolra mentioned, after some discussion and delays, snowflake is to be
 included in Cupcake as a replacement for flashproxy.  There are other
 roadmap items, but those are pushed back pending funding. Cupcake has
 ~4000 users on Chrome, and a few dozen on Firefox (which needs to be
 rewritten).

 Currently, when flashproxy is active, the cupcake becomes a happy cupcake
 with eyes and a mustache. I did a lot of user testing with movement and
 soft/subtle gradient shifts, but unfortunately they all proved too
 distracting to end-users.  The mustache is just enough of a change to be
 noticeable but not enough to steal focus from page content.  So for
 snowflake, a color change would probably work better than a rotation.
