as Andreas said in another reply, you can write the logic to send a kill
signal.

I, myself, after a minute or so of hang-time will just kill -9 the
parent nagios process and be done with it.  So far: no harm, no foul
(that I can tell, anyway).

I never use the web interface - bitten too many times in v1.0 and v1.1
with spawning dupe nagios processes, so now it's habit that it never
gets used.  Maybe it's still unpredictable (as you're saying), maybe
it's great...I wouldn't know :)
