Needs Progress Bars

Both for adding and exporting there is no indication of how much longer to expect, or how long it's been running. Just a mysterious spinning circle.

Almost done? Should I go get lunch? Is it hung? No way to know!

Marked as 'complete'. Has this made it into a version yet?

Progress bars seem like pretty basic functionality to me, especially when exports might take a very long time. The user should get some indication of the ETA. I hope this gets addressed at some point.

Yes!!

Totally - the exporting one is particularly bad... I often export 1 hour lectures, and they can take... well... I don't know how long, because there's no progress bar!

So I found "adding files" just takes some amount of time, then you can go to the pending activity and see a progress percentage. If that is when the actual work starts, why does "adding files" take so long?
