Description
I welcome this feature in version 4.3.8 as exposed in the changelog: GUI: network adapter cables can now be connected/disconnected directly through the running virtual machine Devices / Network menu a Network status-bar indicator
In fact, I hoped this feature was added some day. Good! I would suggest though that the text changes accordingly because it's a bit confusing. I mean, it should switch between Connect Network Adapter and Disconnect Network Adapter to carry out the corresponding action.
By the way, another good enhancement would be to be able to double click the icons in the status bar indicators and bring up the settings window in the corresponding setting section. Sort of a shortcut.
Please reopen if still relevant with a recent VirtualBox release.
