I have a suitelet with buttons to trigger various map/reduce scripts and I'd like to give the user some sort of feedback as to whether they're running and/or what the status of the script is / was on its last run.

have your suitelet return the task id when it schedules a task

unless you plan on being fancy, in which case you make a pretty progress bar that checks the status on an interval

A progress bar would be nice, but I think I'll just use a UI message for now, thanks!
