There would be an advantage in giving instant feedback to the user if

using background processing on the server could be sensible.
I was thinking about this a bit longer today and we[1] might do something
smart like letting the webapp generate a url thats unique for this
person , or
the report and that url is his status page that will then get updated when
something new happens. A plasma app can use polling at regular intervals to
then show the user how his report progresses, including links to suggestions
like "fixed in ver xyz" or workarounds like; "don't use files with å or é in
them.".
Well, we have to see how fast a duplicate search can be done. Maybe
there could
be a quick search that provides a immediate solution (if available)
and a better & slower
background search.
Good idea!
