console.log blocks action when disconnected from WebIDE (or a terminal program)

If you use console.log in a program but disconnect the program execution is blocked when the console buffer is full.

For example:

// Console.log blocks LED On/Off flashing when
// disconnected

var l=0;
myinterval=setInterval(function () {
   digitalWrite(LED1,l=!l);
}, 1000);

var i=0;
setInterval(function(){
  console.log(i);
  i++;
},200);

// load program
// LED is pulsing On an dOff
// Console is displaying the count in i
// Disconnect the WebIde
// The LED action stops
// Reconnect the WebIde
// Buffered count is displayed
// LED resumes action

and the output:

If you are using console.log to show the connection status etc. of a WiFi connection, disconnecting the WebIde will block the server.

Not complaining about this, just posting to let others know about this gotcha.
