Description
Currently the switching station uses mesecons to enable "notification" messages being sent via digilines. Maybe that toggle could be moved to a checkbox in the formspec, so mesecons can be used to turn the network on and off.

Research direction
Start with technic/machines/switching_station.lua around lines 104-116 and trace the switching station's formspec, mesecon, and digiline handling. Clarify how the existing notification toggle relates to network power control. Done means the formspec controls notifications while mesecons can independently turn the network on and off.
