You're right, topological editing isn't taken into account. To be fixed...

I'll pass this bug report to our "node tool" guy Richard.

> The new option "do not show vertex marker" is very nice, but when you have loaded many layers, you do not see or know if one or more layers are toggled in editing mode. In minimum the editing layers should be marked as "in editing mode" in the layer list. In former versions, until 0.8 I believe, the layer in editing mode were marked with a hashed box around the layer name.

Yes, I remember that functionality :-) There were overlay icons for
"in overview" and "editable" states of a layer. From a brief look at
the code, I've figured out that the code for it still exists
(QgsLegendLayer::updateIcon), however some plumbing that would trigger
the update is missing.
