Well, obviously you can close the program and come back a few hours later if 
you feel you're not making any progress.

This could be built into the scheduler, but then there is the risk that the 
scheduler decides you've learned enough cards for now, and should wait a few 
hours, even though you yourself still want to go on. For early memorisation, I 
personally prefer being in charge of that decision, which is why Mnemosyne 
works the way it does.

Still, in 2.0 all the infrastructure is in place to write a plugin which 
schedules at the second level.

Writing such a scheduler is not high on my priority list, I'm afraid, as I 
think it should be guided by the statistical analysis of the logs. Still, if 
someone wants to write a heuristic, feel free.

Cheers,

Peter
