The status bar is not really a prominent area. Having the progress bar with a
cancel button in the notification area or in a dialog provides more control as
a side effect. The question what LibO is doing meanwhile was asked to think
about a threaded process so the user doesnt need to wait. But she has nothing
to do on the other hand.
