I also have often thought that a user settable pause time would be most
useful. I usually scan when I'm doing other things around the shack (or
in another room), not sitting right in front of the rig watching the scan.

Yes, I use the scan function on both my K2's and my K3 and K3S. Next best
thing to a panadapter available.
One thing I have noticed about it on my K2 (and probably the K3 also), is it
has two lengths of pauses - one which is just a few seconds and another
about 30 secs or so. But which length of pause it uses on what type of
signal it stops on seems a bit random. Sometimes it'll open up and pause on
an actual CW signal for the short pause, but then the long 30 sec. pause on
a continuous noise source. And sometimes the reverse.
Not a complaint, though I wonder if there's a way to specify a pause time
somewhere. forgive me if that's in the manual somewhere already...
And yes the bands have been nearly dead lately. Practically nothing on 20M
and up today, tho lots of stateside sigs on 30 and 40M....
