Description

Recently, I started having trouble with getting push notifications - fully working internet, but when I open microG settings, it says "disconnected" - and I can do just nothing about it

It would be useful if microG notified me that it couldn't connect to GCM for >15 minutes - so I would know that I need to manually check my messaging apps if I'm waiting for someone's message

Research direction

Start by tracing how GCM connection status is represented in microG settings and where push-service state changes are handled. Determine how an ongoing disconnection can be surfaced to the user after more than 15 minutes, and verify that the resulting notification clearly indicates that messaging apps may not receive messages.
