Description Pawel Piech CLA 2007-10-18 17:25:56 EDT
Currently there is no obvious visual indication in debug views when there are viewer updates in progress.  If a viewer update takes a long time, the user may get the impression that the viewer is simply broken.

The included patch sets the view's "busy" status to true while viewer updates are in progress.  Currently, the indication in the UI of a view being busy is just making the view text italic, which IMO is too subtle... but it's better than nothing.

The patch is super simple as all the necessary APIs were already in place :-)
