Bug Description
Rendering can be slow a times, and that is a known problem. Right now I'm waiting 30 minutes for a fully zoomed object with bevel button filter to render. I understand filters are a recent feature and are not well optimized yet...
I suggest a keystroke to interrupt rendering. When somebody runs into a problem like me, hitting for example ESC could stop all rendering operations and let me zoom out, remove the filter, change view to outline or do whatever would help.
New features will be added to inkscape and some will be slow at first. Interruptible rendering could give users a way out of trouble no matter what new feature is involved.
