I've been using the AnimationSet. It is easy to get to via
AnimationControl.getSet(), but I haven't developed a custom widget to
deal with it.

To turn off the animation string, I extended the DisplayRenderer and
overrode setAnimationString to do nothing. I haven't done anything about
the "please wait" though I hope to implement a busy cursor to replace
it.
