Actually, the treeview spinner worked most of them time. I'm not sure if
it worked all the time - I didn't check that carefully - but it did work
most of the mtime.

But basically whatever *else* I clicked was the problem. In particular
clicking the tabs out right, with the "Properties" and "SQL" tabs being the
ones I used and they were extremely slow over the high latency connection
(I measured almost 4 minutes as the worst time to load a SQL pane for a
table with 11 columns and a couple of indexes and triggers) with lack of
feedback.
