I don't have a solution for that. Only the helper app knows something about CC, the Perl plugin part is just here to manage the configuration file. That's the reason why the helper can run on a different machine than LMS. So I don't have any way to tell LMS that something is happening on a CC when LMS thinks that its virtual proxy is idle. It would require a special socket communication between the helper and the Perl plugin part - complicated, and I'm not even sure that it could update the LMS "idle" display. So sorry, but I cannot work on that now. Maybe somebody else could implement the full Bridge directly in Perl (no help) but that would require to redo the full Cast protocol in Perl ...
