common items (such as tabs) should perform a function that is obvious and
clear. Common AVKON interaction does not change. However, it an application
can assign an appropriate function to its Navi pane items. It is also possible
not to assign any function where appropriate.</p></li>

pane</xref>: opens a pop-up with more information on <xref href="GUID-771AF721-E2D7-41C8-BF97-5BD30D1A28AD.dita">Status
pane</xref> indicators. It always includes battery and signal indicators and
digital clock. The user can tap any of those for more information. For each
visible universal indicator, there is one row reserved in the pop-up for displaying
the icon and a description text. The description text may also inform about
the current status and/or it may be a link to a view in corresponding application.
For example, a tap on "3 new messages" opens the relevant view from the messaging
application, and "Bluetooth active" switches view to the Bluetooth settings.
Content of the row is determined by the application originating the indicator. </p></li>
