This may seem tedious as well, of course:
Clear[f,g]
f[{x___,a_List,b:{n_,c___}}]:={x,Take[a,n],Drop[a,n],{c}}
f[x_]:=x
g[x_List,y:{__Integer?(#1<=0&)}]:=Drop[FixedPoint[f,{PadRight[x,
Plus@@y,x],y},50],-2]
g[{a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i},{2,3,4}]
g[{a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i},{2,3,4,0,7}]
{{a,b},{c,d,e},{f,g,h,i}}
{{a,b},{c,d,e},{f,g,h,i},{},{a,b,c,d,e,f,g}}
