Hi;
In Discover, it's not obvious when large updates are being installed; after
clicking, the display appears frozen.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Wait for a system update containing ~200 package updates
2. Select the update, click 'update'
3. Wait
OBSERVED RESULT
The app appears to hang for minutes. There's an icon at the bottom that looks
like it might be for cancelling the update, but it's hard to say for sure.
EXPECTED RESULT
* There should be some signs that work is being done and whether it can be
safely interrupted.
* It would be best if there was a progress bar with an ETA calculation showing
when the user will be needed to click on something (system reboot?) or process
will finish.
* Second best is just a progress bar (calibrated by time, not 'number of
packages')
* Third best is a 'busy' indicator
