Public bug reported:

STR:

1. Right click a volume in nautilus and choose "Format…"
2. Click "Format…" in the resulting dialog
3. Confirm your action again on the next screen.

What should happen:

A progress indicator or something to show an action is being taken.

What happens instead:

No visible UI change. I can click on the volume in the sidebar in
nautilus, which remounts it with the old data.

Starting a format of the same volume by using the menu in gnome-disks
does in fact work; that is, I see an indication that the device is in
fact being formatted.
