Actually, I've been wanting that Android indicator for a while. Being constantly on for chat is convenient sometimes, but some of my more chatty friends get difficult to keep up with when I'm on my phone.
I just tried out this Labs feature (which apparently has to be turned on for the person viewing the chat list), and unfortunately, being logged into a desktop client doesn't override the Android icon. Still, it's kinda nice.
On the deranged paranoia front: what the heck? Websites can easily tell what browser/client you're viewing something from. Why is this so scary? I get that the "Google creep" is coming from the TechCrunch article (that's two idiotic things to come from that site today) and not Gizmodo, but still. You could not honestly be freaked out by this specifically unless you were already looking for it.
