As for the timers and toasts go, I can think of two possible approaches off the top of my head.
First, you could provide a custom `baseQuery` function [0] that wraps around the built-in `fetchBaseQuery`, does a `Promise.race()` or similar, and then triggers the toasts as needed.
Another could be to use the RTK "listener" middleware [1] to listen for the API's `/pending` actions being dispatched. Each pending action would kick off a listener instance that does similar timer logic, waits for the corresponding `/fulfilled` or `/rejected` action, and shows the toast if necessary .
If you could drop by the `#redux` channel in the Reactiflux Discord [2], or open up a discussion thread in the RTK repo, we could probably try to chat through use cases and offer some more specific suggestions.
