I will highlight the fact that IDLE's shell currently allows no way of showing a progress indicator, beyond extremely simple bar that only fill up from left to right, without any indication of the rightmost limit, a percentage indicator, or a rotating progress indicator. Specifically, all common progress indicator libraries do not work properly in IDLE. This is a true detriment to interactive work.
