Konsole has a similar existing feature - it can monitor the terminal
application for 'silence' (a period of inactivity) and show a notification when
that happens.

Detecting in a sufficiently robust and reliable way whether a process is
waiting for input might be an interesting exercise.  Suggestions welcome -
bearing in mind that the shell might be remote (via ssh) and the style of
prompt will vary depending on the application that is producing it.
