Icon for people who have been idle a long time.

Since some people just stay in the gameroom when they're away from the computer, an icon should come on to show when they've been idle for a long period of time (perhaps half an hour). ICC auto logs people out after an hour, maybe the gameroom should do something like this. This way, we wouldn't be challenging people that aren't available.

I support this idea too.

Right now I don't know how to detect if someone is idle over an HTTP connection. The gameroom window is setup to make a request every 30 seconds to refresh the current status. To the server this looks like you are active.
