When we switch projects, we get a blank white screen while waiting for the new project. On slower pc’s this can last for many 10’s of seconds. What happened to the switching projects dialog?

I just noticed that switch projects now behaves correctly. The only thing I can think of is that I rebuilt the screen that was creating the ‘Legacy Serializing’ error.

Ah, I was wondering about this too. Switching projects is different than before, but shouldn’t display a blank screen - it should display the bootstrap loader progress bar.
