Currently Resting provides a progress bar with the goal of visually communicate that a request is in progress.
The progress bar is suitable when there is a clear way to calculate the progress of a operation.
In the case of a HTTP request this could be useful for a download request or something like this.
This type of requests are not the common case of usage for Resting.
I think it could be better to substitute the progress bar with a spinner visualized somewhere in the buttons area.
The motivations are:
Progress bar consumes space that can be better used by the request and response panel
