I tried while-no-input, but it doesn't work as intended.

Inside a long loop matching a regexp with nested repetition operators
only C-g quits the body, not any key.

The simplest example demonstrating this:

(while-no-input (string-match "<\\( *\\)+>" "<                            "))

But in other cases it works well, e.g.

(while-no-input (while t))

quits when any key is typed.
