We might discuss if it makes sense to have an additional "Kill" button in the dialogs of YaST modules which does send a SIGTERM but do other applications have it?
Definitly not. There is enough confusion about this "Cancel"/"Abort" topic. In some cases the user is already informed if the process takes a longer time (printer detection, scanner detection). I would be really careful about introducing busy pop ups which might annoy people or confuse people (change graphical representation of a button). IMHO buttons should be only shown when they are enabled and their action has an effect. Buttons maybe shown in a disabled state if there is a possibility to enable them in the same dialog. Sorry, I can't be of more help. Maybe there is a more technical solution to this topic?
