You might want to be careful here. We set most capability bits
beforehand, so you might be wasting effort.

The current loader interface has a very fuzzy definition about that. As
is, we don't have a way of telling you when the load is entirely
finished. We don't have an answer that is useful for you unfortunately.

Alan and I have spent quite a bit of time chatting about the loader and
  various performance optimisations during the last week. We think we
have lots of stuff to do and some tricks to play. That work will likely
start in a month or so, but the end result is that you shouldn't need to
worry about this sort of thing then. We expect that it will take 4-5
months of development before that is complete.
