2. Some changes to data require a subsequent data-fetch. For example, when the user makes a change to a recurring event, we need the new recurrence expansion back from the server to repaint the UI.

Could we display a 'Processing...' message the way we do when we d- click to create new events on the calendar?

mde, could you clarify a bit. Do you mean that the UI will become totally un-functional in this state, or just "sluggish" and "slow" when in this state.

I think a "Processing.." message is a great idea, but whether it should be at the bottom left corner out of sight, or in the middle of the UI blocking any interaction depends on how "sluggish" the UI becomes.
