Since recently (not sure when exactly), the 'load()' method of the
edit window did not correctly mask the window anymore
The reason seems to be that the API2Request tries to mask the
component before it's rendered, and that did never work correctly.
Instead of simply calling `setLoading`, test if the component is
rendered, and if not, mask it after it has finished it's layout.
Since we cannot guarantee that there is only one API2Request with the
waitMsgTarget set to it, nor that the 'afterlayout' and api call
responses come in a specific order, we count the loads, and only
ever unmask the component when the counter reaches zero again.
Since we're strictly in non-async code here and JavaScript is
single-threaded, this should not result in a data race.
