Summary | 0001987: Shorter/configurable timeouts, esp. for stylesheets | ||
---|---|---|---|
Revision | 2008-01-21 17:18 by Simon Smith | ||
Description | Given that downloading some resources - most notably stylesheets - can seriously affect multi-tasking, sometimes for 2-3 minutes at a time, please can the timeout be radically reduced and/or made configurable? Per file-type, even? I appreciate that with multi-tasking near-stalled asking for a keystroke to be spotted and acted upon might be troublesome, but if the Escape key could be spotted and taken to mean 'skip current element', that might help. A shorter timeout would satisfy me; anythibng else would be icing on the cake. |
