Related question:

Is there a simple way to show a progress meter while I am running actions in the inspector? Perhaps with a 'Cancel' button if the user becomes impatient?

Some of my inspections can take a long time, either to read a file or to render a visualization, and it would be great to keep users in the loop a bit.

Hoi!

Suppose that my GTInspector extension method fails for some interesting reason. How should I present an error message to the user?

I'm am especially thinking of cases where I am spawning a Unix command behind the scenes and I want to show the (possibly long) output of the command to the user. Could happen either in an inspector extension method or also in a "Go" action of the inspector.

Tips would be much appreciated :).
