You mean while the cursor is spinning? I didn't try to create a new window, but did note that clicking on any menu items reveals all the usual submenu items as available. If, for example, I select text in the script that was opened, then the "cut" edit menu is available. So, the spinning cursor does not prevent text selection, though everything is very slow. I didn't try actually cutting anything.
