1) The pointer of the mouse should shnge to hourglass or any other icon that tells you that is "doing something" (the standard is that the mouse pointer changes and the browser logo animation starts)
It has a spinning gear logo.
2)on the status bar of the browser it should tell yuo some protocol information, "contacting web site", the resolved IP address, "getting items", "downloading page at 4KB/ps", etc.
It does all of these things (Contacting such and such, Downloading at 4KB/ps, Loading Complete, et. al.).
The most important is the second one, because the first one just only tells you that is ding something, but lets say that you DNS is down, you only will find out that just getting the info of the status bar, because you will see the domain is not resolved to its IP address.
It may say something about DNS, I really can't tell, my connection is to fast (I'm really sad about that one ;-)).
I think those are very important features for a web browser, and Mozilla and Opera supports them
