I was wonder why the Progress Dialog was removed. I liked it and it kept MUSHclient from displaying "Not Responding" when it loaded plugins. Could you give the reason for its removal?

As mentioned in the release notes, I got a report that the dialog did not go away for at least one user, see here:

I couldn't see from the code why that would happen, and didn't want the client to be unusable for some percentage of users just because a dialog wouldn't disappear.

Perhaps the idea can be revisited if other people like it, in such a way that it is less intrusive.

Alternatively, if someone can reproduce the problem (in version 4.76) and send me a world file/plugin combination that lets me reproduce it, I can find out in the debugger why it is happening.
