+1. My ideal would be the following:
Timer startTimer(double delayInSeconds, bool repeating, Function callback);
interface Timer {
void stop();
void resume();
void setDelay(double delayInSeconds);
}
That would cover the majority of cases I've seen in real-world javascript
code. The argument for setDelay is wanting to be able to tweak the delay on
the fly (e.g. Google Page Creator has autosave code that gets a response
from the server with a longer delay time when the server is overloaded).
