Description

Currently it is required to load all controllers for extension UI to be painted. To make things more performant in MV3 we plan to implement asynchronous loading of controllers. Initial version of UI will be painted with state object from storage. The controllers will be loaded asynchronously.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating how controllers are loaded and how the initial UI reads state from storage; done means the initial UI paints from stored state before controllers finish loading, with the asynchronous behavior verified.
