Previous versions of OmniWeb (like, late-'90s versions) had a loading bar in the address field very like Safari's. We took it out in part because there's no way for the browser to know how much stuff it's going to have to load, especially in these days of iframes and javascript and so on, so there's no way for it to give actual information to the user --- it's just a misleading display...
