Does anyone see a problem with this?
Can anyone confirm it is correct?

As for Xt, the callback function is meaningful only when either of
some two variables (`toolkit_scroll_bar_interaction' and
`popup_activated_flag') is set.  So, I think we can "externalize" the
condition and use a non-continuous timer instead of a continuous one.

This won't reactivate the timer because x_timeout_atimer_activated_flag is 1 ...

I don't see anything wrong, but I recommend very much that we leave
this alone until after the release.  I suspect it will be another
instance of the sit-for change.

That's already fixed in the revised one.

I think we should install that patch, if it makes a substantial difference
for laptop power drain.  Would someone test that?
