Letting go of a pull removed its note at once and showed nothing else;
the sidebar's scanning spinner is hidden on a phone. With no sign the
check had started, people pulled again, and again. A "Checking for new
items" pill with a spinner now sits under the top bar until the request
is sent and two seconds have passed, and a pull meanwhile does nothing.
It lives outside #list, which a feed's render rebuilds.
