cancelling connecting

Is it possible to let the user abort the connection attempt in luaplayer 0.16?
When I have this code:

Wlan.init&#40;&#41;
			Wlan.useConnectionConfig&#40;SelConfig&#41;
			socket, error = Socket.connect&#40;"ikhoefgeen.nl", 80&#41;

The script execution halts after Wlan.useConnectionConfig(SelConfig) until the connection is set up. If the connection attempt fails, then luaplayer keeps trying, and the only thing you can do is press home to exit the app

I can't believe socket.connect was put into LUA without a timeout...

You people are on crack, there is a timeout for both WLAN and socket connection.
