This is a feature of the RAP client. Lifecycle requests are supposed to
be answered immediately. If they don't return after ~500ms, the client
changes the cursor. If you see this often, this can indicate that you do
too much work in the UIThread.
There is also API in SWT to display a busy cursor: check out
BusyIndicator#showWhile( ... ).
