Comment 1 Xisco Faulí 2018-10-19 11:00:58 UTC 
So, you would like to have it to show the progress loading a file? LibreOffice has its own progress bar... Out of Scope IMHO

> LibreOffice has its own progress bar... Out of Scope IMHO

Why? This is the matter of better shell integration. E.g., we made changes to have proper taskbar grouping behavior on Windows, which is in the line IMO.

(Disclaimer: I am not volunteering for the task! :-))
Comment 3 Mike Kaganski 2018-11-26 12:33:46 UTC 
OTOH, for LibreOffice, the only (?) task legible for the feature would be the initial startup. This is quite different from the download task, which is common for browsers. For the startup, we need to make it as fast (and thus not requiring additional progress tracking) as possible, so maybe Xisco is right.
Comment 4 Buovjaga 2018-12-25 18:28:49 UTC 
No additional arguments after Mike's comment, so closing. We should really just focus on making startup fast.
