It would be nice to have an argument to set the length of the “network idle slot”, instead of the static 500ms. Of course the default value for that argument could be still that 500ms.

I have a use case with iframes where the main DOM is loaded fast but for some reason (most probably script execution on the page) there is a delay of about 700ms before the actual iframe content loading starts. The first reply for iframe request is actually a redirect, which also takes more than 500ms, and only after that the actual page loading starts.

I don’t know if this keyword would help in that, but I did not find any other keyword in the library that would help me to get the test execution to wait until the iframe has been fully loaded. I have some other, random, issues with finding elements on that specific iframe but that is then another story, but these issues are a bit intertwined.
