I thought it was to be as a "don't worry, we're working" symbol, thus
letting the user know that their last click _did_ cause the activity
to load. The issue is that after a few seconds there is no visual
feedback provided to the user; they have no way of knowing whether
their activity is *truly* loading or has failed to start, since sugar
does not reap zombie activities in non-"joyride" builds. (Although I'm
not sure how that will work with Sugar on other platforms)
