I think that most users will forgive a slow process if it:
* Happens in order to speed things up in the future.
* Displayed an in-progresses percentage, or "x/y complete" while
it's working.
If it doesn't break in any dramatic way, it would be great if you can
commit this so that people who use the browser (which I assume is most
of them) can play with it and provide feedback.
Other points:
* Public facing features should be documented in the Fine Manual
(TM).
* Once it works resonably well, please add it to NEWS in "News since
version 4.4"
thanks!
