Catch the idle shutdown

What would be the point? If it shutdown anyway you would gain nothing, and if the user interrupted the shutdown then everything would have to be powered up again.

I like this idea too - as in I would find, and have found situations where this could be helpful. The more configurable the better huh? Unless it would cost a whole bunch in code and fiddliness and cause problems elsewhere

What is the justification for making it configurable?
Zardoz:
Justification; in this case - none I guess. I just meant that as a general precept. Although now that you mention, it would be cool if one could set an 'interrupt' window in seconds or some such. To answer your question: No justification. Just a notion.
soap:
I'm not against it - but I, personally, can not think of a reason to make the window configurable. I'm not sure what usability such an option adds to the window.
