Description: I am saving files to a webdav (Nextcloud) instance. When I do this, every save operation takes ~5..10 seconds to finish. This may be realistic (files are >1MB and my DSL uplink is 10MBit) but it makes for a terrible user experience. I wonder if the save operation can be done in its own thread so it doesn't block other Libreoffice windows, and the whole UI? Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a >1MB file on webdav server which was previously configured. 2. Save 3. Record the time the LIbreoffice UI is frozen Actual Results: Libreoffice UI is frozen Expected Results: Libreoffice UI should not freeze just because of a slow save target location. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 6.2.4.2 Build-ID: 1:6.2.4-0ubuntu0.18.04.1~lo1 CPU-Threads: 4; BS: Linux 4.15; UI-Render: Standard; VCL: kde5; Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); UI-Sprache: de-DE Calc: threaded
Some work has been done with regards to Webdav recently. Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest pre-release of LibreOffice 6.3 from here -> https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/GetInvolved#Test_Pre-releases ?

tried again with libreoffice 6.3.4.2, same 5-10seconds delay when saving to a WEBDAV resource created by Nextcloud. Other accesses to Nextcloud are fast, but anyway, IMHO saving should be a background task, not block the UI.
