+	 * Display or update an header area indicator.
+	 *
+	 * An indicator is a small label displayed in the header area of the screen
+	 * providing few amounts of status information such as item counts or state
+	 * toggle indicators.
+	 *
+	 * Multiple indicators may be shown at the same time and indicator labels
+	 * may be made clickable to display extended information or to initiate
+	 * further actions.
+	 *
+	 * Indicators can either use a default `active` or a less accented `inactive`
+	 * style which is useful for indicators representing state toggles.
+	 *
+	 * @param {string} id
+	 * The ID of the indicator. If an indicator with the given ID already exists,
+	 * it is updated with the given label and style.
+	 *
+	 * @param {string} label
+	 * The text to display in the indicator label.
+	 *
+	 * @param {function} [handler]
+	 * A handler function to invoke when the indicator label is clicked/touched
+	 * by the user. If omitted, the indicator is not clickable/touchable.
+	 *
+	 * Note that this parameter only applies to new indicators, when updating
+	 * existing labels it is ignored.
+	 *
+	 * @param {string} [style=active]
+	 * The indicator style to use. May be either `active` or `inactive`.
+	 *
+	 * @returns {boolean}
+	 * Returns `true` when the indicator has been updated or `false` when no
+	 * changes were made.
