Primarily: Why is stealing the already-running _initTask (the task that gets the list of saves) from the vanilla menu suddenly not good enough?
I previously just used my own _initTask (see here), but it caused some files to not show up. Presumably because the original task locked some of those files while loading them? I guess I could kill the original task, but I don't know how safe that is. Waiting for it to finish isn't very practical once you get more than a save file or two (trust me, I have 10ish from MP testing alone and that menu takes quite a while to load).
