Inspired by recent rants on twitter about a newly launched Eclipse sitting in the background and waiting for input I remembered the API for showing application progress in the taskbar. Let us show the (Windows) taskbar button in yellow (that is "paused" state) as long as the choose workspace dialog is open.

Have a look at the screenshot to get an idea.

I am not a windows guy. But sounds reasonable to me.
