I have some connection indicators defined and when you log off the color stays, in v8 it was removed and I think this is much clearer.
 
[Tools][Preferences]
[User Interface]/[Appearance]
[Connection Indicators]
Match(user@database) - Color
*@dev - Green
*@test - Orange
*@production - Red

connect to dev
-> button bar indicator goes Green

connect to test
-> button bar indicator goes Orange

[Session][Log off]
-> button bar indicator stays Orange
-> normally it should go back to gray
 
The new option "Allow multiple connections" is off, this to have the same behavior since many years and avoid doing something bad.
 
open a SQL window while connected then you'll see that when you log off the color stays
 
PL/SQL Developer
Version 9.0.0.1601
01.68765
on Windows XP Professional 5.1 Build 2600 (Service Pack 3)

 
The indicators stay on when our database is bounced and it loses the connection. Perhaps it is the same problem and one way to reproduce the issue.

I can easily reproduce this issue following the steps described above. In my case the problem isn't only the connection indicator, but also the editor background color.
 
The pre-release works the same.

For me, I can
1. Log on
2. Open a SQL window
3. Select session, log off all. I can no longer execute a SQL statement, but the color indicators remain.

I believe it is not a bug, if you reopen "sql window" in the bottom of it you will see "*" in front of connection which tells you that it is not connected, but, maybe, indicator in Icon menu should be showing "*" instead of just colour!?

DoDo, this issue has been based upon the DISABLED preference setting 'Allow multiple connections'. In this case there is no color indicator in the bottom of an SQL-window. And the toolbar indicator should work like it did in version 8, which it doesn't.
