Some UX feedback. I had to delete six files from a Herd upload, which were all listed right below each other. I clicked “delete” for the first few, and the file name changed to some “bla was deleted” text. So I just kept moving the mouse down and clicking.

But then, after a few seconds, the text vanished, and the subsequent files moved up a bit. I almost deleted the wrong file due to this, since the mouse pointer was suddenly above a different delete button than intended.

I think it would be better to either not display the text at all (the disappearance of the line should be a sufficient indicator that the file was deleted), or to keep it around indefinitely instead of removing it after a few seconds (also okay, since you can just reload the page to get rid of it).
