I don't see this as an issue.

If there is a interrupt during one pulse, the servo would seem (to the
user) to ignore that pulse since there will be many correct pulses
surrounding it. The servo cannot move that fast.

If there are many interrupts during many pulses, the servo would get
confused and possibly vibrate, but I don't think it will move way out
of position. Hopefully the user would not interupt it for an extended
period of time. extended period being 1sec (enouf time for the servo
to actually move some distance)
