[Bug 851108] Re: "Login was cancelled" after cancelling sign-in

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

>From bug 697504, I realize that if we wait to check that you're signed
in before opening the dialog, that might be a delay of several seconds
between the time you click the link and the time the dialog opens.

One solution would be to show a spinner in the software item screen
itself while we're waiting for sign-in, like we do for helpfulness. That
would solve the responsiveness problem, but would still risk that you
might be trying to navigate elsewhere by the time the dialog opens.

Another solution would be to open the dialog immediately, but close it
again automatically if sign-in is cancelled.
