i don't think it should be included by default in the default index file, but for sure in the sites hosted on pyjs.org. if you take a look at `helloworldsplash` example, that details a way to actually provide the percentage loaded (in terms of modules-loaded / modules-total), and has a progress bar, but a spinner serves the same purpose. i am working on the mail app and others tonight, i'll try and get to this. -- C Anthony
