/**
 * Allows to show a progress of synchronous operations. Sample code:
 * \code
 * const int operationsCount = 100;
 * ProgressIndicator progressIndicator(i18n("Loading..."),
 *                                     i18n("Loading finished."),
 *                                     operationsCount);
 * for (int i = 0; i < operationsCount; ++i) {
 *     progressIndicator.execOperation();
 *     // do synchronous operation...
 * }
 * \endcode
 * The progress indicator takes care to show the progress bar only after
 * a delay of around 500 milliseconds. This means if all operations are
 * executing within 500 milliseconds, no progress bar is shown at all.
 * As soon as the progress bar is shown, the application still may process
 * events, but the the Dolphin main widget is disabled.
