I believe this is already reported in an existing ticket:

        http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/2136

I've spoken with Reinier Heeres in the past about it, the plan he had in mind 
back then was to move calculations into a different thread so the UI didn't 
lock-up during very compute expensive calculations (e.g. a spinner visual could 
indicate calculate was still working on the calculation, and a widget could be 
provided to allow cancelling).
