That's a fair point. Giving no input whatsoever for a minute is a common use case. But for 10 minutes? It seems high to me. Anyhow your point is taken and I won't push the issue further especially since moving from 10 to say 5 minutes would be less significant in terms of carbon footprint reduction. Also as an aside, not that Windows should be a point of reference, but I believe Win10 uses 1min as a default too. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
