  1. These fill up the screen and so it would be nice if we could swipe/cross them away.

  2. Move the toast to the bottom right/left corner (especially the persistent ones like 'scanning library')

You should be able to click on the toast to dismiss it, same with all other toasts.
This is definitely a bug though. There should only ever be 1 scan running for a library at a time. Are you seeing any error messages in the logs?

I couldn't find an 'x' on the toasts (perhaps it was the same color as the bg or small or invisible, i can't say). will check the next time I scan my library.

The cancel button didn't work (was not clickable)

There is a bigger problem here which is why are there so many scans open? It would be helpful if you could see if there are any error logs.

There were quite a few errors in the logs for ~/metadata/logs/daily but none for scans. I couldn't really make sense of it, but here it is, in case you need it for your investigation - https://pastebin.com/EsztUE8T

My experience for those messages has been that the scan took up a large amount of system resources apparently to the point where the connection to the server was dropped. This caused a re-connection but the previous scanning library message stays in place likely because the library is still scanning and never received notification that the connection broke or the scan finished. Re-connecting again during the scan creates another notification of a library scan in progress thus leading to the increasing number of them without removal.

Scanner performance issues are consolidated here #444 which was the reason for the socket disconnections.
Toasts can be cleared by clicking on them.
