Remove the progress bar from the status line, and, instead, for any
potentially long-running operation that has a progress indicator, pop up
a modal dialog box with
an indication of what is being done;
a progress bar;
a "Cancel" button to stop the operation.
This:
leaves more room on the status line for a filter expression;
provides a mechanism to allow the user to cancel long-running
operations (although the way we do so may not back out of them
as nicely as the user might like, if it's not obvious what the
"right" way is or if the "right" way is difficult to implement
or involves doing as much work as letting the operation
continue);
means that, because the dialog box is modal, we don't have to
worry about the user performing arbitrary UI operations out from
under the operation and changing arbitrary bits of state being
used by that operation.
