I also thought about some mechanism that could detect cases like this, but don't know what the best solution would be. However, I will try to fix this issue soon

Any update on this?

It would be nice if we could specify a timeout duration or smtg...

I am finally back from my vacation and this issue should be fixed in the new 2.2.1 release
