Perhaps just displaying the timeout would be useful here. For me personally, the NFS timeout is a proper pain the backside. A little more cleverness there would be appreciated. e.g. can we not just do lazy umounts by default for NFS (or just e.g. a 5s timeout max on the regular NFS umount)? Perhaps this isn't possible in the umount loop - or at least not possible cleanly...
