Show a ProgressWindow()

Is there anyway to popup a little grey status message like the "Saving Item..." message from a translator? I know I'd use ProgressWindow somehow, but I can't figure out how to reference / call it. Anyone done this?

Nope. That's a privileged call, not available from the translator architecture.

Where's the imagination, guys?! Trul,y truly, ProgressWindow is not available, but what I did manage to do was to use the body of the document via the DOM reference passed into the scrape function and then I added / removed an absolutely positioned div right into the middle of the page at scrape time. It's not in the lower right hand corner like the other messages, but it answers the mail. Perfect? No. Ingenious? yes. Boom boom boom.
