Short version: I'd like to be able to configure the timeout for the file status auto-detection that happens when Notepad++ gets back focus.

Background: Sometimes I will open a file on the network at work and put my laptop to sleep without closing the file. If I open my laptop off of the network later and go back to Notepad++, the whole program freezes while it tries to reach the network share that the file is on. It seems to take about 30 seconds for it to finally give up. And I can't even do anything else during that time, because if I leave Notepad++ and come back after 30 seconds, the whole process starts again.

So I'd like to be able to shorten that timeout. I'd probably set it to something really short, like 2 seconds.

The other option is to maybe do that auto-detection on a background thread so the UI isn't locked up.
