The 'wait' button just dismisses the popup in exactly the same way you can have a teleport request or party invite do the same thing. It's an incredibly useful feature as previously you were unable to do anything else once that popup appeared, which included gathering or interacting with your retainers.
hitting circle on the controller before 2.5 did the exact same thing hitting 'wait' does now.
