Fetching the deployment status via XML file is much more readable and precise compared to what you'll see on WAC Lite.
Example of how to fetch the status from a management host using the seeding node:
Invoke-Command -ComputerName $SeedNode -ScriptBlock {
>> ([xml](Get-Content C:\ecestore\efb61d70-47ed-8f44-5d63-bed6adc0fb0f\086a22e3-ef1a-7b3a-dc9d-f407953b0f84)) | Select-Xml -XPath "//Action/Steps/Step" | ForEach-Object { $_.Node } | Select-Object FullStepIndex, Status, Name, StartTimeUtc, EndTimeUtc, @{Name="Duration";Expression={new-timespan -Start $_.StartTimeUtc -End $_.EndTimeUtc } } | Format-Table -AutoSize
>> }
Deployment Status as seen in WAC Lite:
Deployment Status as seen with given PowerShell XML output:

I would love if WAC Lite would simply just do the same fetching the XML output and render it in HTML, rather than having its own style of output on the deployment progress, especially since the XML based output is more precise and quite more verbose and gives a better UX to the user in terms of current steps and steps remaining in the process.
Secondly, I believe this would make future changes obsolete in the WAC Lite progress view.
In the XML view the column "description" could be added as done in WAC Lite with the user-friendly description each task.
