Screencast of the behavior I am describing
DESCRIPTION
When you copy/move a file, a dialog is shown (let's call it the 'copy dialog').
If you confirm, Krusader tries to copy. If the file already exists on the
other panel, a second dialog appears (let's call it the 'confirmation dialog'),
where you get some information to decide whether to overwrite the old file,
etc.
That 'confirmation dialog' shows something very important (and it is
appropriately at the center of the window: **whether the files look different
or not.**
OBSERVED RESULT
However, while you are reading that information to decide what to do, a third
dialog appears, the 'progress dialog', which is located EXACTLY in front of the
area you were reading on the 'confirmation dialog'!!
This means I have to manually MOVE the 'progress dialog' out of the way using
the mouse to be able to read the message of the 'confirmation dialog'. Every
time.
EXPECTED RESULT
The 'progress dialog' should either
a) start only when you are actually copying/moving, or
b) just be placed somewhere else (eg below the 'confirmation dialog'?)
