We have some replies now (moving the balance to skipping). The argument of a
cronjob that starts a new incremental update every 2 minutes while the rebuild
is running 60 minutes gives you 30 jobs just waiting, is imo sound enough to
default to skip instead of wait.
An additional parameter could be added to include the wait behavior as your
patch implemented.
