Description

when you click "edit" in a host you have that modal:

"Loading... Spinner
Please wait while your request is being processed"

The modal has a close (X) button, I was expecting it just to cancel the action but it only hides the modal and the edit request keeps processing.

Should we:

1. Remove the Close button
2. Really cancel the action

I think this applies in several locations

Its bad UX but i can see that the purpose of the close button was to close the alert panel and not cancel the routing.
Im removing the btn.

This is annoying when you have a request that fails. It would be better to really be able to cancel the request (maybe with an explicit cancel button)

Another behaviour would be that when a request fails an error message replaces modal.

It is very annoying not to have the close button when you have 500 errors or network errors.
