Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/2139

My specific use case is that I have a script which first creates an X11 sandbox with WM. Then it tries to execute a process in that sandbox via --join. However, the sandbox isn't fully setup at this point, so firejail exits with the error Error: no valid sandbox. It would be nice if --join would wait until the sandbox is setup.

It's taken a while, but yes! I think we should do it, possibly the timeout can be configurable in /etc/firejail/firejail.config
