Comment (by Janus):

 I agreed with waddlespash for the barber pole.

 A progress bar is useful if you have an approximation of the duration of
 the operation currently performed.
 When you don't have this information usually a barber pole is used.

 A barber pole conveys two information: one the application is doing
 something, two the application is not frozen.

 In HaikuDepot there is a message near the progress bar/barber pole, that
 message can be used to specify in detail what the application is doing.
