Comment (by jdamner):

 I've offered a patch with a <progress> indicator, since this is
 universally supported by browsers. I've used an indeterminate progress
 indicator since this is not a determined amount of time waiting for the
 maintenance mode to finish. Lastly, I've added a filter to set the polling
 period that the browser reloads the page to allow any concerns about
 traffic caused by automatic reloading to be configurable.

 I'm not 100% sure about the wording I've chosen, but as a non-technical
 person having the words to say the page will reload it does not indicate
 wether the maintenance mode is over. Having the wording state that the
 page will automatically reload once maintenance mode is over is the actual
 'effect' of this change for a non-technical user.
