Change looks fine, but wondering if it needs a dedicated option or can a user already use |
Author
You know I must have missed that extraArgs - you are right. Using that's an option. I'll leave it up to maintainers to decide - either way is fine. Separate option might be easier to understand/notice given other options but 🤷 |

Description
This adds support for idlehint configuration to notify systemd about
idle session.
I've taken a simple path to define a plain new option. I think it makes most
sense since it's the only one that has a timeout but no command. But I can tweak
to make it something like
swayidle.idlehint.timeoutor something similar if that makes more sense. I couldn't come up with a nice way to integrate with timeouts or events.Checklist
Change is backwards compatible.
