Android: Add loading overlay while page content is loading

Use case or problem

To start, this isn’t a bug report or complaint about the performance of the Android app. I understand the page loading time depends on my plugins, etc. and I’m OK with the loading time.

The problem occurs when in edit mode and switching from one page to another using the Quick Switcher. When switching pages, the page’s title will change immediately, but if the destination page’s content takes awhile to load the content from the previous page will remain until the new page is ready to render.

This is an issue because it makes it unclear whether the page switch was actually successful. Usually when switching between files, I’m not actively reading the page title; I’m only reading the content. So I trigger the page switch, but then the same content is still displayed so I have to take a half second to determine if I actually switched pages.

Proposed solution

After triggering the page switch, display a loading overlay in the content pane while new page’s content is loading (instead of still displaying the previous page’s content)

Current workaround (optional)

Just wait. Nothing is broken.
