Description

Issue Type: Feature Request

Hello.
This extensionis super nice, it is super useful to be able to interact with PR direcrtly from VSCode.

There is one small detail that you may not notice if you are always on a good internet connection, but it becomes noticeable on slow ones. When you interact with any file on the PR, for example you flag it as viewed, there is no feedback to tell you if something is loading, or even if you clicked the button. It will be very nice to have some visual indication.

Regards

Research direction

Start by tracing the VS Code pull-request file interactions, especially the action that marks a file as viewed, and inspect how its asynchronous state is represented. Add visible feedback for the loading or click state, then verify that interacting with PR files provides clear confirmation when the operation completes.
