Inflation should have a hook which allows it to be async

Done, but now Activity callbacks break because ViewController cannot be bound to a non-existent view (and therefore cannot be obtained from it): ViewController must be bound to StateKey inside a service-tree and not to View itself.

Binding controller to StateKey implies service-tree integration.

Controllers are killed. This is under consideration.

Temporarily, I totally forgot about it.

Maybe? If someone wants it...

[ehehhh]

Do I understand correctly, that this could be used to preload views in the background before they are needed? Or rather just get the inflation off the main thread during navigating?

Or rather just get the inflation off the main thread during navigating?

This, by allowing replacing the LayoutInflater.from(context).inflate(...) call in the DefaultStateChanger with new AsyncLayoutInflater(context).inflate() and make the default also be callback-based, and allow a LayoutInflationStrategy to be set.

[ehehhh]

Would definitely be an interesting addition.
