javascript - Showing a message to the user in chrome extension -


my problem not coding general design question. wrote chrome extension connects user through socks5 proxy (via ssh) vpn network. if proxy process killed or connection interupted socks proxy reconnect , on successful connection (failed) tabs reloaded. while connecting network browseraction icon animated. works fine far.

what want decent visible hint, there going on in background , user has wait few seconds until clicks link or opens tab. thought alerts, hates them , of course right. thought animated message twitter or growl, injecting page content script not seem work on error pages. showing messages @ browseraction text or showing popup doesn't seem possible.

my question is: of know extension solved nicely or have idea how solve this. should visible @ first sight without being anoying. ideas welcome!

you can animate browser action or page action icon. see example: http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/samples.html#9a6e4ec46997fb92b324974afa08a3d007e2537f
