Is there a way to turn off the flashing red status LED? I find it constantly flashing on my desk really irritating. Could it not be updated so that it only flashes during start up, or if there is a problem, and turns off entirely when everything is functioning normally?   (i.e. node + miner both running okay)

Thanks. I did see something in the release notes about the swap file being increased for future lightning apps etc. Does that get installed when update via the web UI?

Nope, for that you need to flash the SD fresh with the new image

Now that wasn’t clear as I would've done a fresh image had I of known that it wasn’t on the UI update version.

Is it possible it would be changed on a future UI update? Or is it not possible at that level?

From reading on here it looks like they'll likely abandon the OTA updates in the future anyway and just stick to the SD card image releases. I wouldn't worry too much until we hear more news about another update (which I'm keen on as I want LN functionality)
