True, but irrelevant. 'idle' events are here to stay.
g.idleTimeHookHandler is *essential*. It calls all registered idle-time
handlers with the correct tag and keywords arguments: **keywords = {'c':c}
Replacing g.idleTimeHookHandler with g.IdleTime is out of the question:
- All idle-time handlers would have to be rewritten.
- Idle-time handlers would no longer have access to c.
As a result, the proposed change is doomed. All plugins will stay as they
were.
It might be possible to use g.IdleTime to queue g.idleTimeHookHandler, but
that's a nit.
