Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

Description: Ubuntu 8.10
Release: 8.10
Deleted Items Applet 2.24.1

When I click on the Deleted Items Applet icon (the 'Wastebasket') in the bottom right of the task bar, it opens up the Deleted Items folder, eventually. However, between clicking the icon and opening up the folder in Nautilus there is no visual feedback that the icon has been successfully clicked (i.e. 'busy cursor'). Even though I have a very fast dual-core laptop, the Deleted Items folder does not always open 'instantly' (depending on what else I am running) and I frequently will click on the icon several times.... and then eventually, several instances of Nautilus will appear. This is annoying. It would be nice to have a busy cursor to indicate that the click has been recognised.
