UI Change Request (Destiny)

Destiny calls for attention unnecessarily.

Examples:

when I have mail that I can't pick up because I have no room

When Cryptarch has money for me that I have no room for
As some people are colour blind... please use a different shape for the person's icon when they have something for me but there is no way I can pick it up yet.

This would be a signal to me that there is something available that I need to make room for.

It is just annoying to go over to attend to an attention (exclamation) icon and find that the journey was wasted. Sometimes the journey is an entire trip to the Tower with all the loading screen, set destination, the trip, the sitting in blackness waiting for a new Tower instance to be created.

I think I disagree with this suggestion. Having no room for stuff should never be a standard state or accommodated as if it would be. Unless this special icon also communicated more details about the item, you'd still have to figure out what's triggering it, and having the icon reveal more also takes away from the fun aspect of going to the Tower to open presents.

Also, given the polish of the UI, I'd be shocked if the Destiny UI team didn't test for issues related to color blindness.
