Toolbar connection status is not visible when using vertical tabs

The "Not connected"/"Connecting"/"Connected" label in the toolbar is not visible when the user is using vertical tabs.

@donuts @felicia where should it be placed in the new arrangement?

Note that the window buttons (only the close/X button in my case, but may also contain minimise, maximise and restore buttons, depending on the OS) will jump up a level if the menubar is also shown.

Note, without vertical tabs and the menu bar showing, this is where the connection status is placed:
