Hard to tell that it's loading/working on page load

[secretrobotron]

For example, on http://archive.org/pop/editor.html, it's difficult to know if anything is happening, because it's just a white page until assets/code/etc. are loaded.

The long loading seems to stem from require.js grabbing all of the html assets and such. This happens after the original browser page load. Perhaps throwing in a loading wheel overlay once PopcornEditor.init() is called and then remove it once the loaded event fires?

There was a way to make a dist version way back in the day that put everything into a big JS file, so you'd just have one request. I wonder if that's still supported somehow.

@traceypooh should we try to merge this in?

[traceypooh]

sounds good to me!

[traceypooh]

is that #71
effectively?
i already felt it was fine to merge, but didn't have answer to @Nolski direct question in #71 ..

[benrito]

Yeah -- @Nolski what do you think?
