Don't show the progress bar when pausing? (TV Apps)

[Dreakon13 132]

One thing I've liked about other media server players I've tried... is when you pause, the screen just pauses with no seek/progress bar showing up at the bottom.

The idea here being, maybe you have to go to the bathroom or get up to do something quick... but you don't necessarily want to know exactly how much is left in what you're watching.  As that knowledge can inherently spoil that something may not get resolved in that episode you're watching, that an abrupt end is coming in any episode or movie, etc.

I assume this would probably just apply to TV apps (Firestick and Roku in my case) since viewing the interface is a little harder to avoid on the web app and mobile apps.

Obviously not a vital feature request, but just in general I feel like pause can just pause, and if I really want to see how much is left I can press down on the remote... right?
