Thanks for starting this Mickael!

In Buildship we have a project preview in the wizard using WizardDialog.run() and it blocks the 'Finish' button, which is not what we want. We do like the progress bar though. I'd be happy to hear the better alternatives.

I'm currently investing dirty hacks. Here is my best proposal ATM:

getContainer().run(false, true, monitor -> {
  if (monitor instanceof ProgressMonitorPart) {
    wizardProgressMonitor = (ProgressMonitorPart) monitor;
  }
});
wizardProgressMonitor.setVisible(true);
// using a wrapper is useful to manage multiple operations and cancel some of them, may be useless for a single one
currentProgressMonitor = new DelegateProgressMonitorExceptCancel(wizardProgressMonitor);
ModalContext.run(refreshProposalsRunnable, true, currentProgressMonitor, getShell().getDisplay());

Hope this helps.
