"set cursor to busy" not working in revweb?

Unfortunately, despite repeated tries, I can't get an answer from Rev 
about this issue of setting the cursor to busy in revweb. I don't know 
why they would keep this info a secret and leave developers hanging on 
such a fundamental matter, but that seems to be the case.

For now, I have to accept that this functionality won't be available any 
time soon in revweb. Is this what other developers are assuming as well? 
Obviously, I can build a field or button that alerts the user when the 
program is busy, but it's extra work I could do without.

I'm not asking Rev to fix this now (though that would be nice). I 
realize they have a lot on their plates. But I am asking for information 
on this so folks like myself can take appropriate action.

Thanks.
