Bug description
When sending lage files from one machine to another, the progress bar is only displayed on the sender, but not on the receiver side.
Steps to reproduce
Send a large file from one machine to another.
Expected behavior
The progress bar is shown at the sender as well on the receiver side, so both have a visual representation of the speed and progress of the transfer.
Additional information
You may consider it as a feature, but as this behaviour is soo expectable and even already available for the sender, i consider it as a bug, as it should be a very basic default feature, as this is basically available on every transfer you experience in any application.
