When performing a -reindex with the GUI, it visually looks identical to a sync from peers.
It would be preferable to visually indicates the difference.
Things like "syncing with the network" are basically wrong.

Testing
master(470664f2b788e2cce9202991d11476a6fef00ef4) on Linux Mint 19.3:
Cannot confirm the issue. @jonasschnelli Mind providing steps to reproduce "syncing with the network" with
-reindexoption? -

I eventually ran into an edge case,... maybe when a corruption is detected and the GUI asks for a reindex.

Can you trigger the issue using -reindex-chainstate ?

I can't reproduce it anymore either. I think I tried to enable txindex & had a corrupted chainstate. But manually reconstructing that doesn't reproduce it.
