As a user, I would like to see more meaningful and relevant information when bundle actions are performed. Nearly anything would be better than seeing "processing action 3/17" for more than 30 minutes wondering if the remaining 14 actions are going to take until end of week.
Conversely, as a Zenworks administrator, I would like to provide more meaningful status information for bundle actions and a better progress estimate.
This might be as simple as having a "progress message" field for each action which would be shown to the user whenever the action is processed and a "progress weight" attribute for each action. The percentage-based progress bar should be showing different percentage values based on the progress weight and try estimating the total execution time of the action set based on the formula <processing time for the completed actions> / <sum of weigths of the completed actions> * <sum of weight for the remaining actions>
