Greetings!
A long-standing usability issue:
When transferring files in Dolphin there is a buffer involved. This buffer is filled, then the file copied to the destination. The progress Notification shows a (near-)complete transfer until this buffer empties, giving an unrealistic view of the progress. The Notification is also only visible by System Tray Notifications Widget, and my 15.10 doesn't show it (might be intallable?). How about a progress bar (perhaps indicating both Buffer state and Completion stage? certainly the latter), in the Destination window. The Notification Widget's code would be a good basis/starting-point for this, and GSoC or Randa a good opportunity.
Much more user-friendly.
