Description

Lately the downloading step during the web baser updater is taking very long (~10 Minutes). This might be due to my internet connection, I'm not sure.

That led to the point where I wasn't sure if the the download was even progressing or if it has failed.

My enhancement idea is, to show some sort of progressbar or percentage value to signal, that downloading is still progressing?!

Thanks
