At present when you perform a bulk action (eg moving many emails from one folder to another) while this is still in progress the folder/label shows a banner saying "Message actions in progress. This may take a while." I would like a central place in settings to see what actions are currently in progress and when they have completed. This is particularly important when setting up filters and applying them to existing emails.

Eg I moved all emails from "facebook" to a particular folder, then moved all facebook emails regarding events to a sub-folder, at present it is very difficult to tell that these operations will happen in the correct order.

I also have some short term memory issues which mean that I am sure that I repeated several actions unnecessarily.

Being able to cancel in progress actions (with a warning that cancelling the action will not reverse it) would be useful.
