2) The "please wait" dialog isn't disappearing properly. The first thing I do is pop up a file chooser dialog, but when I do that the "please wait" dialog continues to float on top of it indefinitely ... perhaps this is just a bug in the GTK file chooser dialog (not updating properly) ... is it possible to explicitly hide it?

Thanks for any help!

(PS: Should this go in the iLiad Developer's Corner? Not actually an iLiad ... )
Can't answer to your first question.
Regarding the second one, I've also observed the same when the application is started using a shell script.
