Boiling water may create extremely pressurized steam

I have a setup where I use several Aquatuners to boil polluted water to steam in order to purify it. However, I only too late noticed that this can lead to extremely pressurized steam. As you can see in the picture, 1000kg of steam per tile, which is as dense as if the tile contained actual water.

I don't know if that's realistic or not (I'd bet it isn't), but even if it were, this is rather problematic gameplay-wise. I had a leak and now I had to lock off the whole area, as there doesn't seem to be a reasonable way to handle this large amount of so hot gas. The steam is so hot and so pressurized that even sending in duplicants in exosuits hurts them when they change in/out of exosuits, as the gas simply simply shoots out of airlocks, and there's no reasonable way to pump the steam out to anywhere.

I think there should be a limit on the gas pressure.
