Grouper UI, all versions.
Description
Currently, long-running operations will result in an error message "×There was an error with your request. Click here to start over." No error has occurred outside of the UI timeouts. However, the user isn't notified that their operation is still processing, only when it completes.
A functional improvement to the UI would be a notification <div>, accessible from an icon in the upper right of the UI (similar to notification feeds in certain social platforms and admin consoles) from any page. The feed would contain the user's recent activity(similar to that on the user's main page). The feed would be modified to add an entry when when an operation taking longer than a configurable amount begins, then another when an operation ends.
