[B2.1] server browser slow// missing buttons

Slow server browser
I just had a fast look at the update yesterday and it seems to be a nice change with the server browser.
Nevertheless it feels really slow.
E.g. When I browse the server list and select a server, the window where I can decide to join the server appears. But before this window opens, it seems like all of the server windows are jumping back to the previous window (the one that you get when you open the server browser for the first time). And it takes like 15-20 seconds until the server window opens, which might be due to this window jumping behaviour.

Can investigate this a little bit more this evening, but just wanted to mention it and maybe someone can confirm this behaviour.

missing button
Furthermore, I miss a button that allows me to go directly up to the view that shows all of the servers in the world, instead of clicking the drop-down menu and then selecting world.

I think it's slow because it's a menu in ManiaLink. It's good for some things but I think it will stay a little slow at finish (time to the request + time to execute the request + time to download the result + time to show the result). It's more long to make this in ManiaLink than in C++ directly.

Yeah, I also have observed that when you go to a title, e.g. Storm, all the menu buttons are there on the left side, except "Competitions", which appears only after a few seconds.
Same for the display in the middle with the ManiaLinks and forum messages.
