Feature request: background/network activity panel for long-running shell commands

Feedback

When Claude Code runs long background shell commands that download things (in my case supabase start pulling several GB of Docker images), there's no visibility into what's actually happening — whether bytes are moving, how much is left, or whether the process is stalled. The output was pipe-buffered, so even the log file stayed empty until completion.

It would be cool to see a network activity panel (or any liveness/progress indicator for background tasks — bytes transferred, active connections, elapsed vs. expected) so users can tell a slow download from a wedged one. In my session the difference mattered: a Docker daemon hang looked identical to a slow pull for ~90 minutes.
