Bug Description
Following the discussion on the mailing list: https:/
There is the need to show progress in the Launcher tile also if the size of the task is undefined.
Proposed solution:
http://
Every time the process progresses it could send a pulse event to the bar (emulated in the prototype by a click on the "pulse" button). There is a maxmium speed the bar can reach and if there is no activity the bar slows down until it stops.

Please can we just use a spinny? It's well understood and conveys
indeterminate progress very well. I really hate progress meters that bounce.
