   While testing/reviewing PR #414

   I was running Bitcoin-Qt.app concurrently with different active networks. I noticed that it may be useful to indicate the network in the Node window title - similar to the main window title. Additionally you can see that the task bar ornaments are crowded when the main window is minimized. When the proxy setting is enabled - the “P” adds to the crowding.

   NOTE: it may be useful to modify the global styling template based on network selected. Adding an appropriate background color tint to the gui may be a good fix as well as the title modification.

   This is not happening for me, at least in Ubuntu and Windows.
