Watir.wait() listens to whether IE thinks its done loading, and then checks to see that the main document and any sub documents/frames have finished loading. More and more, there are pages that on load also kick off various XHRs and timers. For me - and possibly for a growing number of folks, testing more AJAXy applications - it would be great to expand wait() to check if there are any XHRs or timers pending, in additional to the checks it currently makes.
Note, I don't know, but there may be applications where an XHR is intentionally left open at all times. If this happens I would guess that it's rare, but if we change the default behavior of watir.wait() to wait for pending XHRs and timers, we might want to give a config option that turns this off as well.

Wait for XHRs and timers to complete before considering the page loaded (either as a configurable option or always on)
require 'test/unit'
require 'watir'
class TC_one_topic < Test::Unit::TestCase
# Load one page. Test if wait() waits for XHRs and Timers.
def test_xhr_loaded
@urlRoot = 'http://sandbox.freebase.com' # test server
@ie = Watir::IE.new
@ie.set_fast_speed
@ie.goto(@urlRoot+'/view/kevin_bacon') #Kevin Bacon
#enabling this makes the test pass.
#while !@ie.link(:text,'United States').exists?
# sleep 1
#end
assert(@ie.link(:text,'United States').exists?)
end #test_xhr_loaded
end #class
