The check is that all move end-points are inside the joint limits. it
doesn't keep a record of how close each point was to the limit to know
if the coordinate system change is enough to cause a limit violation.

I guess it would be possible to keep a record of the maximum extents
of the currently-loaded file and use those limits in the case of a
coordinate system change.

I think you can abort the preview with "esc", though that is another
incomplete solution.
