Being a nmap user for several years I often have similar experiences as
Matt had. I'd love to see some kind of signal handler, say for SIGUSR1
that actaully terminates the current scan and moves on.

Maybe this feature makes it at least to the wishlist?

This sounds like a great feature.  Forgive me, Fyodor, if such a thing
exists, as I am not familiar with the code base yet.

Catching signals to do various things like this could be handy.

Thanks,
