I have a device that periodically sends a "heartbeat" message to indicate 
it's on-line. If the heartbeat stops, I want to stop the actor associated 
with this device. Simple enough, with setReceiveTimeout.

However, while the device is in use -- a separate state -- I want to ignore 
the "heartbeat" messages, and instead base the timeout on user interactions.

Is it possible to conditionally indicate a message should not reset the 
timeout? Or am I better off handling this manually with the scheduler?

Thanks!
