Huh. Weirdly enough I saw this failure twice in a development branch
yesterday...

Thanks for getting that!

So isolationtester still sees the blocking condition from before the cancel
processing is finished and thus proceeds to the next statement - which it
normally should only do once the other running step is detected as still
blocking?

I wonder if we should emit <waiting> everytime a step is detected anew as
being blocked to make it easier to understand issues like this.

That looks good to me.

Thanks!
