Problem with fullscreen break

Description

I use this while following youtube tutorial videos for some programs. So I have youtube on fullscreen on one Workspace and the program I'm learning on another.

When the break starts I can't pause the video without Postponing the break. So I then have to manually start the break again after doing that.

The last time I couldn't move my mouse, use any key combination or anything really during the break. So I had to wait for the break to stop, but even then I'm left with Resume button and the same lack of responsiveness. So I had to force quit and lost a bunch of unsaved work.

I would rather see the break be a nasty, shaking, beeping little pop-up thing on any corner or the center of the screen but still have the option to switch workspaces and pause the youtube video for instance.
