Default Don't loop if time selection is shorter than x

Hey guys,
Is it possible to prevent REAPER from looping playback in the time selection is shorter than a specified time?
Sometimes I'll have a tiny time selection (used for precise alignment of automation points) and REAPER seems more likely to crash for very short loops.
Crashing or not, it's kinda awful to hear a 2ms loop.

Any thoughts?

All the best,

Sometimes when I make a loop selection really short Reaper jumps out of the time selection and starts playing as usual!

Although I've never paid attention to how long (or short) my loop selections are I did notice that loops can go well into the audio range!

However, I've never had Reaper crash on me because of a loop.

I WISH it would do that.

The crash (mostly) happens if you try to change the time selection size.
