It happens with every change of a text property.

Stop what? All idle timers? That's hardly possible if the timer fires
before you finished typing that key sequence. If, on the other hand,
you manage earlier keyboard events get through you will stop all timers
whenever you mishappen to type C-g repeatedly.
If there's a bug fix the bug. If the bug is caused by a function run by
a timer make the delay larger or run the function manually to find the
bug. In general any function run by a timer must be safe - that is exit
quickly wrt real time and never cause any reentrancy.
