Steps to reproduce:

1. ASSERT: make sure you have at least 1 connection and it is not loaded yet (you'd most likely have to freshly start Eclipse since OpenShift cashes its resources)
2. ASSERT: make sure you have properties view opened "hidden" (ex. in the bottom section, opened but not visible)
3. ASSERT: make sure you have OpenShift Explorer visible (ex. in bottom section on top of properties view)
4. EXEC: in OpenShift explorer: select your connection
5. EXEC: switch to Properties view

Result:
Some modal dialog with progress shows up while the connection details are loaded
