Is this like the spinning disk in Fedit+? I have the impression that Fedit's
disk is linked to the progress it is making on the current task. I wouldn't
mind something like that in the finder, in fact I would prefer the disk
to spinning watch hands on aesthetic grounds :-). By the way: does anyone
know how to use the Fragmentation index in Fedit+? By that I mean, say,
if it goes beyond "x" the volume is dangerously fragmented.
