Description

Currently, for a long-running operation, we see that Wicket hits some sort of timeout on the Ajax call. This results in the animated "waiting" veil/overlay being removed, and the action dialog still being presented to the user. This is confusing; the user doesn't get any hint as to whether the action has succeeded, failed, or (as is actually the case) is still running.

This ticket is to handle such calls better, somehow, at least from a UI perspective.
