I've been testing file-roller trunk and has improved[1] a lot lately, both in performance and formats support, it's now working fine in adding files/dirs to tar.gz and tar.bz2 archivers from commandline, and it's faster than before. As for the ui feedback, a progress dialog is always showed if the operation lasts more than 5 seconds [2]. So I would like your opinion about applying this patch to support those formats.
