+### Loading buttons
+Sometimes a dialog ends with a request and this request might fail due to server-side-validation.
+In this case it is often desired to keep the dialog open, this can be done by returning `false` from the button callback,
+to not block this callback should return a `Promise<false>`.
+
+While the promise is awaited the button will have a loading state,
+this means, as long as no custom `icon`-slot is used, a loading icon will be shown.
+Please note that the **button will not be disabled or accessibility reasons**,
+because disabled elements cannot be focused and so the loading state could not be communicated e.g. via screen readers.
