Hi!
I don't have Elisa installed and even if I install it to test how it works
there, I don't have any song at the moment on my computer to test it with.
Plus my task bar / panel uses the new default square shape icons instead of the
rectangular ones.

But I think your attachment shows that Elisa is most likely doing what Discover
is doing to show progress, which is what I want!
I could not find similar things online, except from Windows, like this image:

And this video, which is how I remember it was with MPC-HC on Windows 7 and I
think the progress background color was yellow instead of green when the
playback was paused (but that's not shown in the video):

Which seems to be working for streaming too:

And here's an example with MPC-HC in Windows 10 (also with the yellow color
when playback is paused):

In my opinion a red color would be nice to be shown too when something very bad
happens like the file being moved to trash / deleted or the network
connectivity being gone if the file is from a server or streaming option is
used. It would raise the attention and be more clear that something very bad
happened and that's why the playback was stopped.

Here I saw that there's an answer on how this can be implemented, but it's
probably not as up to date as the code in Discover or Elisa:

Unfortunately I cannot find this part in the source code of Discover or Elisa.
