This didn't /seem/ to be hurting anything before, but we really
shouldn't be doing it more than once.

The String.localeCompare function is really slow, at least partially
because it creates a locale-aware collator object each time. So now,
when we can, we create and cache a locale-aware collator object.
However, this is not supported on most browsers, so we fall back to a
non-locale-aware comparison. This is not ideal, but for now we are
mostly working with English-speaking customers.

Previously we were using message.display_recipient everywhere, which
is actually pretty confusing.
(imported from commit a58471172e28c039af8e290362e54b6660543924)
This is more consistent with how we compare subjects etc., and can be
used for comparing the subjects of a potential future message that
doesn't have a recipient id yet.

We've been noticing a long delay between switching to a window with unread
messages and the time that those messages actually appear. This got much worse
around the time we added Notificon.
Our hypothesis (supported by some testing) is that the work done by Notificon
in creating a <canvas>, drawing into it, serializing it to PNG, etc. is using
up some quota of background operations that would be better spent rendering
messages.
Switching to precomputed images should mitigate this problem.
Resolves#896.
May resolve#882 to our satisfaction.

(And to let you know that it's OK that you have no messages.)
This fixes Trac #850 for the case where you first log in.

Under some unknown circumstances (it happens on Keegan's laptop) the
loading indicator text width calculation returns a result that's a
few pixels too small. We hack around this by setting 'white-space'
property on the container div to 'nowrap'. The container's div will
be slightly too small (and thus the text will stick out the right
side by a few pixels), but that's probably OK.
This fixes#698

This should fix the weird positioning spinners had when they were
created while hidden.

If you create a spinner in a hidden element and then show the
element, the spinner is placed differently than if you had created
the spinner while the element was visible. This commit makes it so
that we never create spinners while their parent is hidden.

This allows us to use a uniform style across all our spinners. It
also cuts down on boilerplate HTML.
