 Replying to [comment:6 greenfeld]:
 > Verified in 10.1.3 os351 that Browse has a busy cursor which appears
 when the cursor is pointed over the main area of the browser window (not
 the top menus) and the browser is still rendering or waiting for
 something.

 Yes I guess that is expected. Should be the same in previous builds.

 > The busy cursor does not however appear if a download is in progress.
 Walter Bender says this is because the browser isn't technically busy as
 downloads are done in the background.  Download progress for downloads
 initiated from Browse can be monitored from the Journal view in Sugar.

 Correct.

 > I will file a Sugar Labs enhancement request to show some sort of
 download-in-progress indication in the Browse activity as well.

 Using the cursor for that would not be the right choice. Firefox has an
 indication in the panel at the bottom. One could probably solve it as well
 with an animation indicating that it is going into the Journal. But yeah,
 future...:)
