Wow. That is a big delay then.

Is that at all a realistic scenario? Interrupts disabled for 90 minutes! If
that happened you would have more to worry about than one stray button press
(which is still a valid button press, but is a bit late).

I think you are over-complicating things. Just keep it simple: Generate at
least one button event on every interrupt.
