When using aj4:push then the loading-indicator of safari which is visible in the url-addressbar is working and visible forever and does not stop! While the loading indicator is running, the user cannot press any button and cannot type into any input field sporadically. When I make a full page refresh, then input on the html-page works, however the loading indicator does not stop from loading. Hence the user thinks he cannot make any work on that site as long as the working indicator is shown. That is not user-friendly. Maybe the bug is within the athmosphere lib rf is using. The loading indicator problem is related to these problems:
