I want Workrave to count time until break even when I'm supposedly away from my computer (i.e. not touching my mouse/keyboard). So that I could stick to my work/rest schedule, even if I have unexpected interruptions.

Hello,
I think that You could enable that mannually in gconf/gsettings/XML file (workrave/timers/*/activity_sensitive).
Nevertheless, there should be a GUI switch. I would also like to have this feature.

Really like Workrave. 

I think this suggestion would be very useful. I want the timers to continue counting when there is "inactivity". Because even though I'm not using the computer I'm still sitting down in front of it, which to me is unhealthy for long periods. I want a reminder that it's time to stand up, stretch and walk away from the desk for a bit.

Mateusz - I couldn't find the XML file you mention in my Windows Portable installation.

Thanks,
Jim
