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.
