What is that thing

Hello beta testers, I'm not one of you but I've been watching some Cata Vids over on Youtube and noticed something in the UI.
(See attached Image)

What is that little swirling red thing?

I believe it has something to do if the client is downloading additional data or not. But not sure.

Yes it means the game is downloading core game data ! And it's not annoying at all !

It's bugged and lacks interface customization. I.e. a "Show/Hide" button and it tends to show itself when the game is not downloading anything. :P
