Currently we only allow italization for the title as a result of busy state changing. We should consider making this more standard API for views to use.
To me this is a generalization of the busy state. Perhaps a tri-state busy state would be better: not busy, busy, done.
A tri state is quite a significant change and I don't think a good idea at this stage. Done and not busy are the same state - that is complete. The done (bold) state is only for catching attention. If we decide to do this some way to change the tab to italics (maybe by promoting showBusy on IWorkbenchSiteProgressService to API) this might be best. However it is not clear we want to do it as it makes it easy to get tabs into an inconsisten (i.e. always italic state).
