            Bug ID: 362053
           Summary: Add a "switch" for Akonadi and more
           Product: Akonadi
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: infmtk at openaliasbox.org

Many users don't need Akonadi running all the time; we aren't constantly
receiveng or sending emails nor using any KDEPIM thing, but those 300 - 400 MB
of RAM Akonadi uses would be very useful for the apps we work with most of the
time; when I'm working I'm using 2 or 3 apps, don't want any other "parasiting"
resources nor annoying me with inopportune notifications; I think most peoplpe
who use their computers to work have similar habits. So, it would be nice to
add a few of things to Akonadi:
- A "switch" to turn it off just with a click, an "akonadictl stop/start", but
graphical. It could live in the system tray, for example. Or stop Akonadi after
x time since the last Akonadi dependent program has been closed. This should be
configurable, of course. 
- A KCM module to let the users configure if they want Akonadi to be launced by
default when logiin in their sessions or want it to only wake up when they
click said switch. The previously suggested autostart configurator should be in
this same KCM module, I think, BTW.

Reproducible: Always
