[Seaside] HIGH CPU - not frozen, but s...l....o....w seaside image

[Florian Minjat]

 From the output (with the C backtrace) I've got, I think my problem 
was that the call to InputSensor>cursorPoint during a data save on a 
file using SmartRefStream. The image was headless and it stuck trying 
to find the cursor position for the progress bar. I got rid of the ui 
stuff in SmartRefStream. I will wait to see if it hangs again.
