It would be nice to improve when section in stage pipeline when user input and timeout.

Currently we have to write code like this:

 
                                                                when {
  boolean publish
  try {
    timeout(time: 1, unit: 'MINUTES') {
      input 'Deploy pages?'
      publish = true
    }
  } catch (final ignore) {
    publish = false
  }
publish
}
 
                                                            

Which is:

very long
bad practise (catch and ignore)
unclear

My proposition is to make additional clause, which could look like this:

 
                                                                when {
  input message: 'Deploy pages?', time: 1, unit: 'MINUTES', failWhenTimeout: false
}

Default parameters could be:

message: Proceed or Abort?
time: 5
unit: MINUTES
failWhenTimeout: false
