Add a warning threshhold per activity

[helmo]

Feature request ... wild idea ... just wondering.

In certain projects it can be useful to get a warning when the recorded amount of time gets over a certain amount.

My personal usecase would be to set a soft limit per activity, warning before starting a new activity and when the threshold is reached.

Implementing for every usecase might lead to feature creep ... a few possible variations might be:

• threshold per day/week/month/year
• threshold per activity or category, or maybe even tag?
• softly warn using a popup notification uppon reaching the threshold
• hard warn, and stop the time tracking uppon reaching the threshold
• softly warn when starting a new activity
• hard block from starting a new activity

If you don't mind sharing, what is your usecase for this warning? Is it about not spending too much time "doing X"?

Exactly. I have a few clients where I have a 'budget' of X hours a month to do stuff for them. When I spent more time I discuss with them upfront.
