It seems like we try to load up all the messages before showing the full-size console view. This is a problem if there are 100's of message in the console. (A good test case is using 2nd level inspector while dumping protocol traffic via the switch in InspectorBackend.)

Since old output scrolls off the top, we should probably be showing the view immediately then incrementally rendering messages from newest to oldest.
