Description Sjoerd Simons 2010-04-09 10:52:01 UTC
Currently when you add a new account in the wizard on clicking forward it will just add an account in the background assuming everything will be fine, which isn't always the case. Instead when creating a new account it should go to a seperate page the shows the progress of the following steps:
  * Creating the account in MC
  * Putting the account online (if we're on a network)

If either of them fails the user should get an option to either go back to the settings or discard 
the account as a whole. After which they can move on with the next steps :) If the user isn't on a network we should just indicate that we can't connect for now for that reason, but that the account was created and allow them to go on the next step.
