Make the UI show that downloads have started. #228

I would have seen it the same way. My suggestion is to add a simple dialog 
which says, e.g.

Download for Dict .... has been initiated

OK

I would treat the OK-button as mandatory cause this requires user-interaction, 
i.e. the user is aware something has happened (resp. started). [= your 
interface shows responsiveness to user interaction]. Since you could surely 
assume one would NOT download multiple dicts in a row, I wouldn't bother that 
much about continous confirmation dialogs...

AND the approach wouldn't require THAT much of effort. Cause this is only a 
MessageDialog..... (so no tons of effort required ;D)

Anyway, since I am now already aware, I don't fall into the same trap twice ;)

Yeah and the GUI itself is currently quite nice - which I really appreciate.
