Hi Thomas,

I have one nit below.

Why indicator? Whereas it sounds quite generic it is used in the LED
subsystem specifically for naming indicator LEDs, that are often
found on flash LED controllers and are designed to indicate camera
sensor activity.

If it is on the front panel of SGI Octane workstations then its
function is perhaps well known?
