I've recently used blivet GUI to resize an LVM partition (shrink one and grow another one). See https://unix.stackexchange.com/q/583639/146739.
It had 4 tasks and it seems to be stuck and not go on.

The progress bar stayed at 0% for minutes.

SO IMHO, for UX reasons, you should have a better loading indicator. Maybe one that shows that the current task is still active.

As an example see how gparted does it.

Unfortunately blivet doesn't provide progress for the resize operation itself so I can't show the progress in the GUI, but I'll try to think of some way how to indicate the action is still "alive".
