If the user clicks the "Stop" button, it's probably sufficient to just clear the status bar's progress text (i.e., m_statusBar->setProgressText(QString()), which we already do now, and also call the status bar's setText(QString) method with an empty string), I think.

Well, maybe we could show the "Directory loading has been canceled." in the status bar, rather than just clearing the status bar, but I think that showing it in the KMessageWidget might be too much. After all, the user knows that he has canceled loading the folder. In any case, we're in hard message freeze for KDE 4.10 already. In principle, one can ask for exceptions, but I'm not sure if the "canceled" message is really important enough - maybe we can just remove it in KDE 4.10 and, optionally, re-add it properly translated in master. IMHO, the main benefit of https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/107116/ was that the "Loading Folder..." message is removed.

Just if it wasn't clear why clearing the 'progress text' in the status bar isn't enough: I tried accessing an sftp server and then canceling last night. In that case, there is a non-progress text in the status bar that should also be cleared.
