There needs to be a stronger visual indication that formatting removable drive is ongoing.

Project Member Reported by fukino@chromium.org, Apr 11 2016

Issue description

<b>Version: <Kenneth, what is the frequency?></b>
<b>OS: <please tell me it's not XP></b>

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Connect a removable hard drive to Chromebook.
(2) Open Files app
(3) Start formatting by selecting a context menu shown in the left pane.

What is the expected output? / What do you see instead?
A notification saying "The formatting can take a couple of seconds. Please wait." is shown, but disappears in a few seconds.
And the message after a few seconds disappears.  If I then pull the plug on the drive, it will complain that it hadn't finished formatting.

There needs to be a stronger visual indication that something is happening.

Please use labels and text to provide additional information.

We should use non-dismissable notification.
