I need something similar, too - so I've planned to submit a new widget 
to wx, something called wxBouncingGauge which uses 
gtk-progress-bar-pulse API under GTK+ 2 and is generic under Windows.

I've placed some notes about it (among other things) at

    http://www.wxwidgets.org/wiki/index.php/User:Frm

(see point #8)

If you're willing to do/help with it, let me know.

NB: I'll work on such control on first days of september probably, 
cannot do it earlier...
