Can't you just use a name-based timer, re-set it every time you get any
activity, and when it goes off (implying no activity for the duration of the
timer), shut down?

This module does not specify any timeout, so sometimes my program
seems hanged and does not response.
Is it possible to specify a timeout or lifetime for the event, so it
will quit when reached the specified time?
