SUMMARY
Plasma shell crashed, and it is doing its work, but it is taking a while. I would like a button while it is processing information to basically close the application and let it continue as a background task.

Not minimised though. That takes up space on my taskbar and can distract me from my work.

While it is working, change the "Finish" button at the bottom right to something like "Finish in the background" so a user can click it knowing that the process will still be running. If the process is Finished, just show the Finish button.

If the user clicks the "Finish in the background" button, a popup could be sent once it is done, notifying the user of success or failure in submitting it to the server.

Not worth the effort unfortunately.
