Description

We should show the loading prompt here, possible integrate the showTreeItemPicker into a wizard prompt step.

The wait in the video is short because it was already loaded, but when it's not loaded the wait is pretty long.

Research direction

Start by locating showTreeItemPicker and the wizard prompt flow in the extension. Reproduce the delay when a subscription is not already loaded, then determine where a loading prompt should appear and whether the picker belongs in a wizard step. Done means the wait is represented clearly without disrupting the subscription-selection flow.
