password protected 7z archives not supported makes application hang

I understand that opening 7z archives is not implemented (although I thought it was). However the application hangs as soon as I try to open a password protected file inside a 7z archive. I think there should be a better way to avoid this bug and/or to inform the users about the lack of this feature.

I'm attaching a partial fix for this issue. Opening password protected 7z archives from the command-line and files with encrypted headers still does not work but at least it works now from within the application when I provide the password.
If someone is able to improve this patch, that would be appreciated!
