I fear, Zope cannot help you (as displaying a status bar is mainly
a client side issue).

JavaScript may be enough. However, the browser will almost surely
not provide a hook for this purpose.

A Java applet, too, will probably need to access the file system
and therefore must be signed and run with special "Read file system
permissions".
