Switch Network Location action UX review #562

Description

@dustinrue

The Switch Network Location action needs UX review.

Current state

Picker loaded from networksetup -listlocations.

Issues to address

  • If networksetup fails or the list is empty (e.g. permissions issue), the UI falls back to a raw text field with no explanation
  • Network Locations are a relatively obscure macOS concept — a brief explanation of what they are and why a user might want to switch them would help
  • No indication of the currently active location

Acceptance criteria

  • Graceful error state when location list cannot be loaded
  • Help text explaining Network Locations
