What's wrong with using the "booting" light at the top? Plus, expand the feature to cover opening books, opening a collection...pretty much anything that could involve a delay, really. Code the light to flash once a second during any task where the CPU is busy, starting at the end of the first second of that task, and it'd pretty much take care of itself.
