I think this is an improvement, but not yet ready. For example:

- The treeview shows spinners on the junctions of the branches, and a
bigger one in the middle of the pane, simultaneously. I think the
bigger one should be removed.

- The spinners for the Query Tool and Debugger are inconsistent and
poorly laid out:
  - Different spinner icons (FYI, I prefer the one used in the
debugger - can we use that everywhere?)
  - Text not centered
  - Background greyed in the Query Tool, but not the Debugger

Additionally, I've logged another issue
(https://redmine.postgresql.org/issues/1400) which you may want to
take care of at the same time as this.

Thanks!
