Eh, I wouldn't really want to add an additional timeout-interrupt if we could avoid it. Sorry, hadn't followed what you meant (honestly, I expected us to already have some kind of timeout loop when waiting, nice to know that we don't :). As I mentioned to Alvaro, a single NOTICE after a full second of waiting would be fine for my use case, at least. My main concern was that it'd be one-per-second, which would be too much. I agree with your concern about doing things from an ISR though... Thanks, Stephen
