A fine idea, in principle, but unlikely to satisfy anyone who would rather
see an actual timer than a row of (presumably) dots in their browser.  Why
not allow the option (to those who would prefer it) of some simple DOM stuff
using JavaScript (or anything else).  Even if only to have a message window
that scrolls past with the last n messages that would have been sent to
stdout had freenet_request (or freenet_insert) been used instead.
