Bug #793
alarm plugin needs rewrite
100%
Description
When i enable the alarm plugin it force to enable an alarm, set to the time i do enable the plugin.
This can be very annoying if you do not remember this (or first time users).
Alarm should be not be enabled without active setting it.

Updated by The current alarm plugin has several serious problems:
- Unsafe use of pthread_cancel() -- on a thread calling into GTK!
- Heavy use of GTK, which we are moving away from in favor of Qt
- Usability issues such as this one
In a future version we'll probably just remove it. A replacement shouldn't be terribly hard to write.
