I'm fequently working with my entire library (\> 130K tracks).

I can't tell when a filter is done working. Mp3Tag says "Ready" at the bottom even though the page isn't displaying the results of the current filter.

The same applies to Undo. I have to click on the scrollbar every so often to see if the undo is complete.

I don't need to know quantitative progress. I just want to know whether it's still processing my filter or undo whether it's done

Just a "Working..." or similar indicator in the bottom of the filter bar, and "Ready" when done would be great.
