Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Yes. When attempting to edit a larger image (e.g., 5 MB) over a slower network connection (such as "Good 3G"), clicking the Edit button in the Media Manager results in a frozen-looking UI for about 30 seconds. There is no indication that the image is loading, which may confuse users or make them think something is broken.

Here’s an example screenshot of the editor UI stuck during loading:

Describe the solution you'd like

A progress bar should appear immediately after clicking Edit, to give users visual feedback that something is happening.

Additional context

  • Tested with local installed Joomla 5.3.1-dev
  • Browser: Firefox 127
  • Network throttling: 1536 kbps / 40 ms latency (via Firefox Web Developer Tools menu)
  • OS: macOS Sequoia 15.4
  • Image: JPEG, ~5 MB
