Even that revealed a ton of bugs and crashes that had to be fixed (including a crash in GTK itself). With your proposal, we'll have one document-changing operation (loading) interrupted by another document-changing operation - and I don't think it's possible to properly sort this out at all.
I looked at implementing this a while back and came to the same conclusion.
Incremental loading is still something I'd like to do eventually (particularly for the sake of preview), but it's not yet clear to me how we could get from here to there successfully. We'd at least need a facility to restrict verb invocation on a per-document basis, but that doesn't help us for actions which aren't tied to verbs yet.
Can GTK+ do this for us by making the whole window insensitive?
