Maybe apps like 'musicplayer' or 'file upload' that (can) work in 'background'
should set a flag, e.g. dontInterrupt or bgTaskActive.    If the user
triggers a reload,  an overlay/popup can be displayed that tell user
that 'music playing' 'file upload' would be interrupted and offer
'interrupt' 'cancel' 'open in new tab'  with last the default  (plus the
never ask again checkbutton).

  To me vi is Zen.  To use vi is to practice zen. Every command is
  a koan. Profound to the user, unintelligible to the uninitiated.
  You discover truth everytime you use it.
