Description

A proposal:

A long-time operation should be visualized using dialog window with some useful message and 'Dismiss'/'Interrupt'/'Break'/etc button. It will allow to interrupt this operation very easy and obviously.

Implemented instance is calculation of directory size.

Other possible instances are:

  • search in editor and viewer;
  • open large file in editor and viewer;
  • directory reading in some slow VFS;
  • something else.
