Feature: select timers from indicator menu

[Chris Pudney]

It would be useful if you could start a timer directly from the indicator menu rather than having to first select "Show Alarms" and then start the timer from the Alarms dialog.

So, please add each of the alarms and timers as items in the indicator menu (or a sub-menu) such that selecting the timer/alarm menu item starts it.

Thanks - great tool!

I want to second this feature request. I was led to this application because I wanted a simple Pomodoro timer that would show in my panel and replace the web-app I'd used before (http://www.moosti.com/). For this use-case, it would be ideal if

* as Chris suggests, you can select the timer you want to start from the indicator menu; and

* you can stop a running timer from the indicator menu -- currently, this requires bringing up the Alarms dialog and either clicking the checkbox next to the alarm, or clicking the alarm and then the enable/disable button.

As a bonus, it would be great if, in the Alarms dialog, I could (with checkboxes) choose which alarms and timers showed up in the indicator menu.
