I've explained it in this thread in a clear way. There won't be anything
beyond that for some time, since I don't want to speed up anything.

This topic is to get feedback from others. Maybe it's just me, who thinks
the progress window is flawed. You certainly sound as if it would require
much effort to convince you (or other developers) as long as you believe
the current approach might be enough or my use case would be too odd.
Then it's flawed by design because of applying a philosophy that only
caters for simple usage scenarios. Quick and short operations that don't
clutter up the progress display for a longer time. [Is the use case really
that odd? I don't think so. Personally, I still use Midnight Commander in
multiple terminals more often than Nautilus.]

Comparing with "other state of the art file managers" doesn't interest me
much either, since simply stopping the window from jumping to the top of
the list automatically would "fix" the most annoying problem and would
make the scrollbar usable, which would be the only point of including a
scrollbar in that window anyway.

F25 Firefox just crashed for me while filling in the GNOME bugzilla
advanced search form.
