The manager Simple View could benefit from a task queue summary

Please consider a progress bar on the top of the Manager Simple View, placed to the right of the BOINC logo. The bar to be a 4-color hash bar with the scale of CPUtime-in-queue. For a task queue containing several days of work, this feature might need refreshing only perhaps once per hour. The four colored areas from left-to-right would be:

1. total time computed to finish all tasks found to be 100% complete
2. total time computed from all tasks partially completed
3. total time remaining from all tasks partially completed
4. total time remaining from all tasks found to be waiting to begin
   Perhaps an embellishment on this is to place a dark bar between !Increased scheduler options for screen saver. #2 & !Add command line function to allow boinc manager to select target computer #3 to denote % complete?

I find myself doing this as an approximation from the data in the Advanced View to suggest there is some pending administrative work I ought to be doing...

Fixed description formatting.

BOINC Simple View contains a progress bar already. It shows the time elapsed, remaining (estimated), percentage done and the state it is in. And that for all active tasks. Should it contain more information?
