Description Robert Elves CLA 2006-07-14 13:21:29 EDT 
When attaching a context the dialog will just sit there with no indication of the background action taking place. The user is left guessing if there has been a problem or if work is being done. Often the attachment process takes so much time that the ui actually stops responding.  Perhaps upon clicking finish the wizard should complete and the actual attachment process run async only notifying the user upon failure.
Comment 1 Mik Kersten CLA 2006-07-14 19:47:03 EDT 
Note that the context attachments need to be unified with the standard attachments, run the same job, etc.
Comment 2 Robert Elves CLA 2006-09-28 16:00:03 EDT 
Will address this as part of 1.0 ui refinements.
Comment 3 Mik Kersten CLA 2006-12-06 00:00:35 EST 
Deferring.
