Indeed, Etoys-II (the Tweak-based version) supports waiting exactly  
like that. I fact, it has a "wait" tile. But the architecture needed  
to change quite a lot for that.

We could retrofit something similar to the current Etoys (in fact,  
Yoshiki made an experimental scheduler that allows this) but it is  
too great a risk IMHO.
