Since rollouts can now be extended/resumed, you can simply hit stop and, if it's not at a boundary you want, change the
Rollout trials setting to the boundary, then roll the position/decision out.

But I actually question if there's any real significance except at the first roll/second roll/third roll boundaries -
that is at 30/36, 1080/1296, etc. If you are using quasi-random dice, then you don't get any better (or worse) results for any lenght except the magic n-roll boundaries where you know you've done a complete set of all possible
first/second etc. rolls.

I don't think this would add enough to justify adding an
extra button. It would also mean that we'd have to make the
number of trials a global which RolloutGeneral() would need
to keep referencing, as it would be changed asynchronously to the rollout code.
