Comment (by leavengood):
OK, I can use that one.
I guess the final question concerns the behavior of such a bar. I think
the options are:
- show it centered in the main window, but with a delay, to avoid the
annoying "flash" if an image loads quickly. Then of course replace it with
the image when the image loads.
- show it in the status bar, probably without any delay, and then hide it
when the image is done loading.
I think the first option will be nicer for the user, but maybe harder to
implement.
