      When power users want to move questions from one question bank to another, this is not possible because the dialogue with the question banks and categories remain empty because of a timeout/memory issue.

      This is because the dialog tries to load all possible question bank including its categories.

      Ideally the dialogue should use the preselected question bank and categories only. Any other question bank can be loaded via an ajax search. When this new bank is selected, a subsequent request should fetch the category hierarchy in that question bank.

      This would speed up loading the dialogue content a lot.
