My two cents: most of the issues you have raised are motivated by performance on mobile platforms and I am assuming this one as well.
As far as I know,  setting showBusyCursor=true on mobile is pointless as there is no mouse and no mouse pointer.
Even worse, when you set "showBusyCursor", the "hourglass" cursor is displayed at random places, which does not look very "mobile".
Better to use "BusyIndicator" or anything else to show that something is in progress (and of course setting showBusyCursor to false).
