As a data scientist, I can see a progress indicator when uploading or downloading files so that I can track the transfer status

Thanks for opening this issue!

Currently there already is a status progress bar that gets activated when uploading a file, as it can be seen in the screenshot below. The version of JupyterLab I tested this on was v4.3.1.

For the downloading operations, most browsers already have an indicator showing the progress of the download, so I'm not sure that would be necessary at the moment. As such, I will close this issue, but please feel free to reopen the discussion if necessary!
