The possibility to Stop the clock during inactivity is not working. Microbreaks keep coming while reading or looking and not using keyboard of mouse.

Hint: When deinstalling 1.9.0 and reinstalling 1.8.5 the tick for Stop clock micro break during inactivity is unticked while it was ticked in the 1.9.0 version.

Workrave stops the clock if you are idle for 5 seconds (if 'suspend timer when inactive' is enabled for the break). The break timer is reset if it is stopped for 'break duration' seconds. So if your micro-break duration is 30 seconds, you have to be idle for 35 seconds before the timer clock is reset. Otherwise the clock will resume and you will eventually get a break.

Could this explain the behavior you are experiencing?

I think I have the same problem here. 
The timers keep running (counting down) while I am away from my computer. I have version 1.10
In previous versions 1.8 or 1.9 it stopped couting down whem you where away.
So now, I even get the daily limit warning when I am in meetings all day..
