Problem
Currently, (on Kovan testnet) I can see newly opened channels with a balance of 0, before (after waiting another couple of seconds/minutes), the deposit shows up in the channel. This is confusing since the deposit was already gone from the balance in the "token overview" page, but wasn't shown in the channel deposit yet, meaning that for a short period of time that deposit is nowhere to be seen.
Solution Proposal
One could only show the newly opened channel once the deposit has been added to the channel, too and not before that. This would take away the confusion that the deposit is gone from the token balance, but not yet in the channel. The process could be supported with update notifications see #82.
