I'm using the alternative: the splash screen is a substack with the
following elements in the script of the main stack:

on startup --or other init message
......
--
  showSplashInit
  set cursor to watch
  wait 3 seconds
  hideSplashInit
--
......
end startup

on showSplashInit
  set the decorations of stack "Splash" to empty --inhibe user's closing
attempt
  palette "Splash"
end showSplashInit

on hideSplashInit
  close stack "Splash"
  set the decorations of stack "Splash" to default
end hideSplashInit
