Indeed, I think it's a pretty big deal.  I was stuck using the TkAgg
backend for MPL for ages precisely for this reason: I couldn't really
bear the thought of not being able to interrupt cleanly (without
losing a session with hundreds of previous results) a potentially
hours-long computation started by accident.

I was really happy to have been able to get this working.
