title: NotesTimer causes the whole lotus client to flicker
body: <p>I have a timer that talks to java objects through LS2J. It has only to call some getters of the java objects and to update the GUI with new values. This causes the GUI in iNotes Client to show the "Busy" cursor very shortly when the timer ticks. I is really annoying because it occurs even when another window is open and even in the designer.</p>
  
  <p>I actually have to expect that the functionality in the timer event will get more complicated in the future, so I don't want to solve the problem by making my handler lighter.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to tell iNotes client not to show this cursor or even an alternative way to make this regular check without timers?</p>
