Was this ever addressed in anything? I would dearly love being able to take a break at checkpoints.

Checkpoints/savepoints are for amateurs who don't know how to play good.
I remember FF7 which had savepoints two or so every chapter but FFX and the newer FF games had save points every other map area.
Deal with it.
Also, this is a Challange mission which means you don't get savepoints. Think about it. Would it be a challange if it did? Does the Havin. Arena have a checkpoint? Would it make sense if it did? No.
But a solution for your crap skills is for Magicka to expand the Challange and make it into a full length campaign so it can have save points. I don't actually think this is a good idea since I think they should go into the Roman Empire, Ancient Egypt, etc.

That's one interpretation. Let me give you another: they're for people who don't feel like finishing the game in one sitting. Or people who have to take unexpected breaks. These things have nothing to do with skill and everything to do with practicalilty.

I've logged 183 hours in Magicka. Most of that is Adventure mode. Are you not having fun?
During the Livestream that TotalBiscuit did with the Arrowhead developers. There was a discussion about the Checkpoints and their ability to save a players progress. Initially they had only planned for each chapter to last 15 minutes, but it actually takes much longer. They did not say whether they would or would not change it, but im pretty sure they said they'd be considering a solution. Watch the vids on youtube to find out for urself.
