      Description

      The removal of the splash pane early on in JalviewJS development was just a preliminary hack; most of the code that is in the Java works now in JavaScript; the while/sleep loop can execute in Java and JavaScript as a simple timer-driven state machine. The only issue is that the label UI doesn't properly handle HTML, and the read-only HTML JTextPane has not been implemented. Since HTML JTextPanes are probably -- in practice -- *always* read-only, this should not be a problem. Even adding the HTML event listeners could be simple enough. For sure, the JLabel option needs fixing.

      See bug/JAL-3487-Splash-JS branch.
