Opposite of ng-cloak for loading message

I have resolved this using a somewhat hacky method as follows. The following HTML is added at the end of the main page.

<div ng-show="::false" style="position: fixed; height: 100%; width: 100%; background-color: #353535; top: 0; left: 0; z-index: 10000;">
    <div style="display: table; margin: 0 auto; font-size: 26px; color: #CCC;">
        Loading
    </div>
</div>

The message is shown across the entire browser until the page is compiled, at which point ng-show takes over and hides the loading message.

EDIT:
Angular 1.3+ lets you use the :: expression to prevent evaluating the expression in every digest cycle.
