Yes, I meant "user is idle" from Emacs' point of view. I should have
been more precise. I wrote: "the user is idle (e.g. uses an other app
or is away from the computer)".

So this feature comes into play when the user is idle in Emacs,
e.g. uses an other app, so doesn't look at the Emacs window
and can miss error messages.
