Details

When a page is loading, the beach ball cursor shows. It makes it very difficult to click a button/checkbox because the hotpoint isn't visible.
This is happening, but is it a bug? When a page is loading, it should display a busy cursor so that the user knows that the browser is busy doing things and that you shouldn't try to have it do other stuff.
If a user sees a page, they are going to use it in some way always. and if a user cnat use the page until its COMPLETELY done, that is going to make a lot of people think Mozilla is MUCH, MUCH slower than IE. And a lot of times the info appears on the page before the page is complete. It is possible to make a custom CURS that has both the arrow and the beachball in it. That is what iCab does.

Confirmed, agreed that this may not be a bug, though.
