The problem with this is that it’s not symmetric. If this is implemented, I 
get used to getting notified if the game isn’t winnable anymore, and assume 
that it is if I’m not notified. But the fact is that that solver may have 
just timed out, and the game actually *is* unwinnable, even though there’s 
no notification of this.
