Dear Dillo developers, since the bug tracker is down, please let me propose a new feature over the mailing list.
From time to time I am in places with a very bad internet connection. when I surf with Dillo and click on a link it appears that nothing happens, except that the link color has changed. Then I'm usually wondering what's going on now. Did I really click the link? Has the server has been found? Is the server responding very slowly? Does Dillo receive data from it? Or is my connection dead?
To avoid this confusion, I'd like to propose a status message which is displayed in the status bar at the very bottom of the Dillo window. The message could say what is currently been done. For example, Firefox says "Looking up www.example.de" "Waiting for www.example.de" "Transferring data from www.example.de" Many thanks and best regards, Alex
