Description Simon Kaegi CLA 2011-04-28 17:38:32 EDT 
Rather than writing out this message out I wonder if we could do something else to signal to the user that a load is happening. Windows explorer uses a mouse icon change to the waiting... swirly and we might do something similar.

+1

At the very least, we should delay showing that message until a few milliseconds have elapsed - for example, only show the message after 150-200ms if the response hasn't been received by then.
Comment 2 Simon Kaegi CLA 2011-04-29 11:07:32 EDT 
For M7 I've added 500ms delay. Not closing this bug though as I think we can do better ;)
Comment 3 Boris Bokowski CLA 2011-04-29 15:04:04 EDT 
I've made a similar change in coding.js (and removed a code block that got duplicated and lead to double-loading of the file, must have gotten there by a botched merge).

Does anyone else find the above frightening? 

Two issues:
1) "I've made a similar change" <= not exactly the same? not made the change once and fixed both places? (do we need aspect oriented html?)
2) "gotten there by a botched merge" <= Yikes! Can we go back to CVS? (pretty please)
Comment 5 John Arthorne CLA 2011-10-27 15:50:38 EDT 
Current behaviour seems pretty reasonable. The old list disappears immediately so I have feedback that it heard me. If it takes more than 500ms I see the "Loading.." message, but otherwise the new content just appears.
