Description

A confirmation message would be nice before orangutan breaks the task, i.e. “I will break your task in a minute, is this okay?”

This is intended to avoid situations when the user comes back after a short break and orangutan asks him whether or not he should break the task. That kind of messages are often ignored by users (I personally don’t notice it if the messaging window is opened with the tab of orangutan opened, I then notice only “Ok... Stopping the task and opening it again.” message, which is kinda annoying, because I do not want any breaks for that task, especially the short ones, like 5 or 8 minutes). A confirmation would help in that sort of situations.

I’m still analyzing this issue... However - what about this suggestion:

Instead of asking again I can allow canceling break (or stop)... Sample:

Orangutan: Should I break current task?
Orangutan: Ok... Breaking...
User: No!
Orangutan: Sorry... Removed break!

What would you say? Can this suggestion “replace” what you suggested?
