this is weird.

as for the number of objects, for suche a small dialog, it shouldn't
matter that much.

if xml is big, you can send it to a thread... I guess libxml has no
problems with that, just be sure to use no EFL calls there (including
eina for now).

BUT, why not use EET for files?! That would explore the potential of
this nice format! And it should be faster, as well.

anyway, I think that just adding the startup code to an idler or timer
after window is displayed will improve user experience a lot.

you're welcome, testing is nothing compared to doing real code! :-) So
thank you!
