Change the PAW waiting icon

We want to heavily use PAW to present reports.  However, as PAW syncs across books, users MUST know to give PAW a second to sync.  The WAIT icon is far too transparent/translucent in PAW.  Make it obvious that the user needs to wait.

 

Here's a use case where this causes a big problem:

There is a prompt tab and a dynamic report tab.  A user selects the prompts, clicks the dynamic report tab and clicks a Rebuild Sheet action button.  However, the Rebuild Sheet action button didn't actually work because the report was syncing.  The user doesn't know this because THEY DIDN'T SEE THE WAITING ICON and their data just refreshed.  However, they still need to rebuild the sheet in order to see the full report.

 

See attached for an example of a report where the icon is not clearly visible.

    Updated status to functionality already exists. I believe this is no longer an issue with the Planning Analytics Workspace new experience (released Oct 2020).
