Cancelling long-running operations in wizards | There is now a stop button adjacent to the progress bar when a wizard is running
a long operation. You can press the stop button (or the 'Enter' or 'Space' key) to cancel the operation
being shown in the progress bar. This behavior occurs for all subclasses of Wizard Dialog. Dialogs
that do not subclass WizardDialog must change their code to get the new behavior. Please open a bug
if you see wizards that should have the stop button and do not, and refer the team to
Bug 287887.

Progress shown in platform task bar | Job progress can now be shown in the platform task bar on platforms that support
this feature. In this milestone, progress is shown for install, update, and uninstall jobs. In
future milestones, progress will be shown for startup and other long-running jobs, such as team repository
synchronize or workspace builds. See Bug 302529
for more detail about the new API associated with this feature.
