A few thoughts! But generally it's looking good

Should we have a is_shared method on the connection or something, so we remove the chance of typos etc? We're also mixing terms 'shared' and 'global'. It would be good to make sure we're only using one of those.

Yeah, we can add a method to the connections class to check if a connection is shared.

 					<?php
-						checked( true, $connection_data['enabled'] && $connection_healthy );
-						disabled( false, $connection_healthy );


This is an interesting flaw currently. If we know that the connection is broken from the last test, then we should update the cache to show that. Currently the cache might have all connections with an ok status, but the test-connections call then disabled it.

I think it's probably a follow-up though. It's how it also works in the block editor, but should we remove this disabled logic? Might it be better to update it to check that the status is ok?

As mentioned above, the status is by default null until connection tests are run.

May be in a separate change, we should use that connection test result call to save the connections list and then we could use the status field from there.

Yes, I don't think it's for this change, but we don't actually store the status of the connections now do we? So in the frontend, that's only reflected after the test connections call. I think we should update the connections cache with the result from the test connections call, and that should mean things update and jump around less.

We might want to check we're storing the status of the connections properly on WPCOM too, or we will try and share to broken connections. I think this bit is fine, but something to check while we're at it.

The connections that need reauth are treated as broken from the point of view of notifying the user, but they're not actually broken, and should still be able to be used like a valid connection. must_reauth used to be because the API had changed, but now it is if the connection will expire at some point soon.

No, I updated the messaging on the similar lines that you did in #41494

Yeah it's not the messaging, it's the fact that it sets isInvalid to true. Doesn't that mean we'll disable it?

Should we be checking that the status is ok too?

status by default is null and is now set only on connection test results.

Right. Do you think it could be safer to check status here too? I feel like we should be storing that, so we'll just have to put this check back in when we do.
