How can I tell the difference between time I was idle and time that Rescue Time wasn't running (or logging was disabled -- same thing, to me).
You might ask why I care. My work habit is such that I login in the morning, and logout at night. So if I look at the "8 AM" hour and see that I did 10 minutes of "work" I don't know if that means I didn't start work until 8:50 AM or if I started work at 8:00 AM and then got pulled away from the computer.
My point is, there's an important difference between the time that Rescue Time is running and knows I'm idle vs the time that Rescue Time is not running.
Can I turn the RescueTime logging keyboard shortcut (KS) off completely (not just set it to some other letter of the alphabet)? I hate system-wide KSs that often interfere with the KSs of specific applications? For those scant times when I don't want it to log, I can always go into the interface to turn it off, but so far I have not turned it off once in a month, so I won't miss not having the KS.
Currently when a computer is locked, rescuetime stops logging (as expected).. But when coming back from unlocking the computer, rescuetime doesn't resume logging; it requires specifically re-enabling logging from the user.. Is there a setting to automatically re-enable the system, or is the manual method the only way??
I'd like RescueTime to be able to log how much internet traffic has been sent/received and display that as graphs on the dashboard (or an inside page to reduce clutter).
Some people might not like this, so it could be configured as a plugin(?) or an opt-in feature.
Is this possible? And if not with the program itself, can it be done with the developer APIs?
The following is a super-simple script to toggle logging on and off for the Mac Data Collector. I use it in conjunction with quicksilver to turn logging on and off from any application.

delay 0.3
tell application "RescueTime" to activate
delay 0.3
tell application "System Events" to keystroke "l" using command down
