I'd consider that to be a fairly strong requirement, but it's not something I particularly thought through for the mockups. One solution might be to change the nautilus background for folders that are being backed up, another might be an indicator in the status bar, another might be emblems on the folder icons themselves. Which approach works best would probably depend on whether we expect most of the folders people are browsing reguarly to be backed up, or not backed up-- in general, you'd want any sort of indicator to show the less common state.
