 The information icon is an indicator that a job has abstained from voting
 (or is a non-voting job).  Abstaining typically indicates that a job's
 score may not factor into determining the combined vote.
 
+If enableInProgressStatus is true then the loading icon is an indicator that a job
+has been set with value 2 and identified as 'in progress'.
+_NOTE_: The Jenkins [Gerrit verify status reporter plugin] currently doesn't
+support in-progress or any equivalent status so enabling progress status makes
+sense only if one uses own postbuild/prebuild custom pipeline logic for setting
+statuses via API. For instance:
+1. In-progress status with value=2 is sent via API as the first step of the build.
+2. From postbuild section actual finish status is calculated in groovy script and
+is send via API.
