Comment (by sysrqb):
Mozilla are somewhat inconsistent in this area with the UI, too. As
Richard mentioned in [ticket:23247#comment:67 the original ticket], when a
website is loaded over TLS with active-loaded mixed content, the security
indicator in the URL bar shows a gray lock icon with a yellow triangle
overlaid on top of it. However, in the identity dropdown, the lock icon
does not have the yellow indicator overlaid on top of it (the yellow
triangle is moved down to the description).
I think the active-blocked mixed-content security indicator is a good
example of how we should consider implementing this. The user is shown a
green lock icon but there is a note in the dropdown mentioning some
content was blocked (https://mixed-script.badssl.com/). Overall, I think
we should continue giving the user the same assurance that their
connection is onion-encrypted. I noticed the inconsistency today, and I
was admittedly confused because I expected the Identity dropdown would
show the onion icon, too.
