I've never seen a drop-in solution. And trying to do it with a cell is way too 
annoying, IMO. Unless you have 50,000 rows in your table which will all have 
running indicators, just add NSProgressIndicators as subviews of the tableview 
when they're needed. 


In an approach I've used for a long time, the tableview delegate in 
willDisplayCell: adds or removes an indicator from the tableview depending if 
it's needed for that cell. If the indicator is not in the tv, it adds it as a 
subview. If it shouldn't be in the tv, it's removed if it is there. You can 
optionally set the indicator on the cell and have the cell do the layout.
