Created attachment 194214 [details] screenshot after a successful merge in git, the progress message says "OK" It would be cool if the progress service could special case the "OK" message and say something a little better. I think a good solution might be to add a parameter to showWhile showWhile: function(deferred, message, taskName) And we could post info like taskName + " is complete." In fact, this would be even more useful for the case where a showWhile doesn't provide a final message or status. Having the progress message disappear may not be enough for the user, it would be nicer to have a completion message. The taskName could also then be used for cases where more than one thing is going on, for showing progress from multiple tasks, etc.
We have many implementation-oriented status messages, and I don't see that OK warrants at special case at this time. I'd rather add the "taskName" notion in a later release, do some animation, etc. and then consider the OK special case.
Things have changed with progress (we have animation now, etc.) but the basic point is still relevant: When something is "OK" do we need more context, like saying what was OK? This is especially relevant if we decide to keep a history. A bunch of "OK"s are kind of useless.
moving out of 0.5M2 to 0.5 milestone until we have more specific buckets for future
I haven't seen "OK" in a long time.
