For my own use I do not care if the progress dialog continues from
where it was or starts all over, so I need no save/restore of its
state. However, the fact that the progress bar does not start at all
after changing screen orientation suggests a bug. The impression I got
is that the progress dialog upon dismiss does not get cleaned up
before the activity restarts and attempts (and fails due to a conflict
with the lingering previous progress dialog) to recreate that same
progress dialog. As an application developer I have no control over
the asynchronous dismiss handling, and I cannot see what happens under
the hood that makes it fail, so the above is just my conjecture.
