Move the full-balance warning to before the fork, so that the user can see and react to it.
Notes on test: - Don't use grep -q, as it causes a SIGPIPE during the countdown, and the balance thus doesn't start. - The "balance cancel" is superfluous as the last command, but it provides some idempotence and allows adding more tests below it.
