The idea is quite nice, however I see a problem here:

   connect(runnerManager, SIGNAL(matchesChanged(const QList<Plasma::QueryMatch> &)), SLOT(stopProgressWidget()));

in fact matchesChanged might be called several times during a query, especially if the user has enabled ``slow'' runners (e.g. nepomuk). 
This implies that the progresswidget would stop before the query has actually finished, which is not accurate.
I haven't thought about it too much, but I believe that if you want to provide such functionality you have to modify runnerManager to emit a signal when all runners have finished, which may not be completely trivial.
