fine with me then

we could also create our own class that uses the gif as a background image, or
simply embed the gif directly? then we'd keep the image and could still
add a translated text

we use that for running tasks and replication, and the class
'x-grid-row-loading' is the same for pve/pmg/pbs (so i thought it might
warrant to have it in widget toolkit, so that we can remove it from the
individual projects' css files)
