+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #203677 +++

Putting all the filesend feedback and controls in the notification area does seem to make it a little hard for some users to discover.  The biggest problem might be that the button to cancel the file transfer relies on A/V playback-iconography instead of explicitly being labeled STOP and PAUSE TRANSFER.

* Would usability be increased if we simply put those text-labels there?

* Would it be better to include some kind of control right in the chat-dialog?

* Come to think of it, this may be a usability/discoverability issue beyond Kopete that affects all File-Copy and -Move operation notifications.

Dear user, unfortunately Kopete is no longer maintained.

Please migrate to another solution, e.g. for Jabber a possibility is Kaidan, for Matrix a candidate is NeoChat.
