Dashboard: include the time spent away from the PC in the total
Using Rescuetime in my company, I spend some time away from my computer: breaks, meetings, interviews. So the amount of daily time reported in Rescue Time may vary greatly day after day.
RescueTime records a valuable information for me: time of the first login in the morning and time of the last logout in the evening. With these 2 times, I should be able to know the actual amount of time spent in my company (I know even some companies that use the login time of their employee as a "time card", to record the amount of time spent inside the company).
Anyway, I would like to see this information on my dash board. The best is to include it into the bar chart and count the time spent away from the computer, and auto-tag it for example "Away from PC". It would be simply computed as:
(time of last logout of the day) MINUS (time of first login of the day) MINUS (total of time recorded by RescueTime -applications, sites-)
By doing so, the dashboard will display more consistent total time day by day, and I would be able to see the days where I spend more time away from the PC.

Inappropriate?I work billing by the hour, and would also really really need to see at exactly which time I started working and at which time i stopped, and also at which times I was idle, to be better able to estimate my working hours and non-computer activities during the day.
In the past I used an application called Gabe's TypOmeter for this purpose, but the application is quite old no longer works on my upgraded computer. See the following screen shot to see what I'm after: http://www.informatics.no/TM_Help.htm#AP
Just a simple textual representation of the start/stop time would be great, but graphical representation of active and idle times would be even better.
