(for me it does well on the majority of them though)
This is about (not) notifying the user, and (not) ending a process that keeps running in a hidden fashion even after ending the plugin or restarting Calibre.
edit:
A new thought came up:
While I can imagine that counting words from a pdf can be problematic and process-freezing sometimes, I am guessing that counting the pages usually won't pose serious problems.
So maybe when counting words 'gets stuck', propose to only write the page count and terminate word count?
