Looks like Jouni forgot to provide the design when marking this as
fixed. But in bug 1355093 he linked to
<https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ulthdi43a7t2os9/AABd_E913XKUlaFhHenYLtzsa?dl=0>.

The video shows the dots filling exactly once. In the absence of a spec,
it's not clear whether they are supposed to be determinate, always
filling exactly once (as with the progress bar in Ubuntu 9.04 and
earlier), or indeterminate, looping around (as in Ubuntu 9.10 through
15.04). Jouni, could you clarify? I'd be delighted if we returned to
determinate progress -- that would follow our design guidelines of using
a progress bar for a type of task that usually takes, or has already
taken, more than five seconds. <https://design.ubuntu.com/apps/patterns
/communicating-progress>

Either way, though, it's not clear how the dots should interact with the
progress bar for installing a system update, a process which spans
multiple restarts. Since the dots *look* like they're showing progress,
at least, I guess the progress bar should replace them entirely.
