Is there any way to get the status of a restore in progress? I'm running  
1.1.0 and here's my command+response while a restore of a different  
snapshot is running:

curl -XPOST  
"localhost:9200/\_snapshot/prod/sim-autobackup\_2014-04-10/\_restore" -d '{  
"indices":  
"accesslogging\_awseast-2014-04-10,centrallogging\_awseast-2014-04-10",  
"ignore\_unavailable": "true",  
"include\_global\_state": false  
}'  
{"error":"ConcurrentSnapshotExecutionException[[prod:sim-autobackup\_2014-04-10]  
Restore process is already running in this cluster]","status":503}

However, while this is running, I can run the status on all snapshots and  
get nothing:

curl -XGET "localhost:9200/\_snapshot/prod/\_status"  
{"snapshots":[]}
