We don't have a "best practice" for how to inform the user that a
request is processing. If controls _must_ be disabled (to prevent state
changes while the request is on the wire), then disable them. You can
have all your controls' enabled attributes constrained to a flag that
gets set when the request is made and when it is completed, as Henry
suggested.
In many applications, we also change the cursor icon to show that the
application is busy.
Hope this helps,
Dan
