Show throbber as an option

                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMAHAWK-1125
             Project: MyFaces Tomahawk
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: InputSuggestAjax
    Affects Versions: 1.1.7-SNAPSHOT
            Reporter: Apostolos Mantes


There is no way for the user to know if the suggest function has returned an 
empty list or is still working. The old inputsuggestajax UI made the difference 
clear to the users via the throbber icon. If the user thinks that there are no 
suggestions and in the mean time moves the focus to a differenc component (by 
clicking or pressing the tab button) the list will popup but he cannot use the 
arrows to navigate to the results.

Having an option to display the throbber icon would be useful in cases where a 
"heavy" suggest function is implemented or there is a slow network connection. 
More generally, a more "generic" approach would allow the user to define a 
class style to apply to the control while the ajax function has not returned. 
Maybe there is a way to override the called dojo function but my dojo skills 
are not sufficient to achieve it.
