You might try popping up a model status panel or something, this would disable the other elements AND give a better visual indication that the user should not be interacting with the App.

Subject: [flexcoders] Disabling mouse/keyboard interaction while BusyCursor is set

 

When fetching large sets of data to populate some of our screens, the
user gets a little time to watch the busy cursor spin around.
Temptation to click buttons and other interface elements exists and
this can cause unwanted results. Just curious on how others have
handled this.

Disabled all keyboard, mouse interaction? Hid problem UI elements till
data has been fetched? Loaded everything up front and used a progress
bar? any comments are appreciated.
