Bug Description
If a user chooses to install an app but doesn't stay on the app preview while it downloads and installs (or the device sleeps in the meantime), when they see the list of apps, the app that is being downloaded is still shown as un-installed, with no distinction made.
This needs design input - some platforms show the app in the list of 'installed apps' (eg iOS home screen) but have a progress bar or some other badge to show that it's not ready to run yet.
This affects both unity8 and the scope because there will be additional state for the scope to send to the dash in the apps list results.
------ UX Comment ------
The desired solution (although temporary) will be creating a new category in the Apps scope to display all new/recently installed apps. They can live there until the user launch them for the first time (or move them to a user custom created section, once this functionality is implemented). After this (ie. a week), they will appear on the 'All' apps category displayed by alphabetical order.

The visual design I've seen for that was that the icon was supposed to be desaturated 100-$progress_ percent from the top during installation. So if that stands, the app should move from Available to Installed straight away, but be desaturated initially and "fill" from the bottom up as installation progresses.
