I just re-installed FreeNAS on a new USB boot device and re-built my storage pool. Before I blew it all up, I backed up my data to an external USB HDD, so my next task was to transfer my backed-up data back over to FreeNAS. I did this by plugging the drive in to a USB port on the FreeNAS box and then went through the "Import Disk" process under Storage. When you kick off the import process, a modal box pops up that displays progress. I was wondering if there were any way to retrieve this modal box, or otherwise check on the progress of the import after the modal box has been dismissed?

You could use top or ps to monitor the copy process.

That sort of works. I'm guessing that it's the rsync process that's performing the actual copy. The only downside is the I don't have any sort of indication as to progress.
