Summary	0000186: Model Selector takes too long to load, no feedback
Description	The Model Selector takes several seconds to load and the application is non-responsive during this time. If the loading process cannot be sped up (likely) then some "In progress" type feedback should be provided and the GTK main loop should continue to run.
Tags	No tags attached.
