Handle gracefully DOM hijacking without blank screen

[mstn]

The phase between document.open and document.close takes a bit of time and a blank screen is shown for few milliseconds while the new document is loading. I would like to get rid of this white screen.

A rough solution is to use a splashscreen that covers everything until the end of hijacking. However, I'd prefer to show a loading indicator instead of a fixed picture. I googled a bit and it seems that it is possible to have animated native splashscreen in Android, but I'd prefer to not write native code.

Immediately after document.close, document.readyState is 'loading', not 'complete'. I guess document.{close,open} are async. I doubt a loader indicator can be shown while document is loading.

Does anyone have any idea about how to make dom loading as fast as possible?

Indeed this is something I'm going to be working on. I don't think I can
totally resolve it but I can get a chunk of the way there by inlining the
JS and CSS assets via localStorage and (injecting on DOM hijack).

if I remember correctly I experimented with only hijacking part of the DOM
which would have allowed you to only switch to meteor after it was
loaded... But it didn't work for me... feel free to experiment and let me
know what you come up with.
