Description

I just started my computer today. I immediately started a natural restbreak,
which lasts 25 seconds. In the mean time, My daily limit timer ran from 4:00:00
to 3:59:41 (i.e. 19 seconds of "activity").

- I would prefer it not to run at all until I become active the first time
- If it has to run, it has to elapse 25 seconds (the duration of my micro pause)

(yes, I do consider micropauses activity)

Corrects, Timers are started with 0 idle time. The easiest solution is to start
the timers with "Pause Duration" idle time. Timers will then start with a full
green bar. I just implemented this. I'm not sure this is the right way. Comments
welcome.

This new behaviour is most interesting. If I now quit and restart workrave, then
my restbreak bar appears partially in blue (8 minutes remaining) covered with a
completely filled green bar.

At this point, I expect my restbreak timer to be reset, but fortunately that
doesn't happen.

Maybe it's a good idea to only start with "Pause duration" idle time if there
currently is no recorded activity or something like that??

Agreed. Fixed.
