I am on the fence on this one.
If Vim shells out to run something and that something is taking a _very_
long time, your Vim is essentially hung.
This happens to me frequently.
At least with the Window there, I can close it, which returns an error to
Vim (via the system() call) and I get my Vim back.
Without that I have to terminate Vim, and that is a real pain.
