UX Idea: Show status of Ticket Purchase?

[exitus1]

I was wondering if there was any way to display to the user what is occurring under the hood, and the status when a ticket is being purchased? There's also no way to halt the purchase.

Yah it's possible. Basically requires a change to how the PurchaseTicket action to dcrwallet is handled. Currently it's just a Request/Response, but if it were changed to a Stream we can pipe back various status updates and also we can cancel request. It's a bit of an undertaking. If I have some free cycles I may take a swing at it at some point. Agree that it would definitely help UX.

Maybe it would be easier to just have the logs displayed, similar to how it's done in the mixing tab?
