I think it would be nice to get some progress bars from the read/write
device configuration and upgrade firmware dialogs done. Also a dialog
with a progress bar for the auto-suggested-fw-upgrade-ostc3-thingie

I have some half-done code for parts of this but I'm in the middle of
corporate chaos and a house renovation so ill see if i get around to
finish it off. Otherwise we can always leave it out.
