podcast status column

Description
I think there are a few problems with the podcast status column.
-
It uses a fixed width column but includes text. This doesn't work. We should either not use a fixed width or not use text.
-
The use of the term "Paused" is very confusing since we also use that term as a playback state. It is also misleading when it is used to mean something like not ready to play.
-
When a track is downloaded and ready to play there is no need to have an ugly progress bar with the work Completed in it.
-
The column heading is misleading because it doesn't indicate that it really means "Download Status".
-
Why should we display a "Failed" message when we already have an error icon available.
So, what might be better?
How about replacing the column with one that has an icon for:
- Download / Get
- Downloading
- Error
- Delete
The delete will only appear when the file has downloaded. It might be nice to have the tree row look dimmer when the file isn't ready to play.
