[Sugar-devel] Download Manager ProgressBar [DESIGN]

[Utkarsh Tiwari]

Omg! I have been looking all over internet on how to integrate a
Gtk.ProgressBar into Gtk.Toolbutton and I even tried using
Gtk.CssProvider styler to scale down the progressbar to a button :D
Now that(ProgressIcon.py) sounds really cool!

Thank you :) You made my work a bit easier ;)
