Is there any possibility to implement in Servant Salamander a feature that looks like this:

There are 2 panels. First and second... when You copy something the second panel divides into two and show a progress bars and state of the copy process.
I think it is a very cool feature. Can it be implemented in Servant Salamander?
I know that I can press (do it in background) but in Speed Commander the copy function is implemented in the way I shown in the picture.
Please check it out.
Regards
Ben

Plus: no need to switch from operation to main window.
Minus: requires some space for operation queue in the main window.
Minus: worse accessibility. It is easy to switch to ongoing operation window using Alt+Tab in Salamander, navigate using TAB among controls, use hot keys, etc.

Hmmm... But this 'copy window' is shown only when the operation is being done. Normally there are 2 panels in normal size. Only when you click the copy or another function the second panel(in this case the right ) is divided in two. After finish , the 'copy window' dissapears
Ok..I just wanted to inform You about this ... Maybe it will be implemented in servant Salamander, maybe not.... thanks for response.
I personally wouldn't mind if the "copy" window is below both panes and is more complex in a sense of a queue. This way is it implemented in many FTP clients. Yet I haven't seen it in file managers. One can see all the copy jobs and their progress in one place. Not talking about the possibilities to change the order of "scheduled" jobs.
