Idea: Status bar that can indicate progress

[PF94]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When pressing the Download/Play button, the application does not give any indication that it's doing something, thus. If it's taking a bit longer than usual, it gives the illusion that it froze/crashed (Sony Vegas moment)

(When DWN is disabled and you move a window, this happens, which shows that the form is not rendering when it's busy with Acapella)

Describe the solution you'd like The cursor should be changed into the "Working in Background" cursor. It should not be the "Busy" cursor since that will give the illusion that the application is not responding. There should also be a status bar to indicate progress.

When the user clicks on Play or Download, then the status bar should be changed to "Loading" (as seen in the mockup) or something else. When it finishes getting the voice clip from the Acapella servers, the status bar should be changed to "Ready". If the user decides to download instead, the status bar should be changed into something along the lines of "Please specify the location you would like to save your audio file.".

This looks a bit unprofessional, so after the user saves their audio clip, instead of opening a Message box form that says "Done!". The status bar should say "Done!" for 3 seconds and then go back into saying "Ready".
