broken UX: when opening a publication to read, when opening the "publication info dialog"...

@panaC I wonder if it would be possible to decrease the general HTTP timeout from 30s to 5-10s (MAX!) for LCP-LSD network requests?
If not, at the very least, we need a GUI "egg timer" / spinner while the user waits. In the top-right corner there is sometimes a circular loading indicator for other operations, which in my opinion is a bit too discrete, especially after waiting for 2 seconds ... maybe the spinner should grow bigger / more visible as time passes, for example during a large DAISY book import.

The LCP Status Document async/await promise does not trigger any visual "please wait" indicator, so the Thorium GUI looks stuck / frozen, feels like an application crash.
