Since I don't copy huge files around every day, I often forget that we have a progress indicator hidden within the file manager window. This causes me to think the operation was complete so I start doing stuff with the copied files, and only then I realize that it's still ongoing.

This indicator needs to become less subtle... either by making some animation to point to it (in a way that won't be *too* intrusive... maybe like the animation Firefox has to point to its download progress indicator?), or by using a progress notification like on Android (something our platform doesn't have right now) or anything else the designers can think of.

Before this indicator was a thing, there used to be a progress window, and it appeared on the screen in such a way you couldn't easily miss it. I'm not asking for that window back, but I'm sure we can make the indicator as noticeable as this window was, somehow.
