spark.components.BusyIndicator does exactly what you are describing. In fact, it draws the spokes in code as well. So no need for a graphic. Justin has pushed a change into the patch branch that moves the component out of mobilecomponents.swc and put into spark.swc.
For now, I can add a dependency on mobilecomponents.swc to get that component. Later, when Justin's branch gets integrated, I will remove the dependency. In the future, someone can come up with a new skinnable version of BusyIndicator as well. That is for another day!
