Details:

i propose a command to pause a timer in (single and) multiplayer matches.

players who dont like the timer because they cant do things in between that
requires their immediate attention but would otherwise like to ply with one
would have the chance to ask for a break without running out of time, saving
the game and continuing at a later point etc.

in practise the technical details would work like that: 

player 1 or 2 would press at best a hotkey "P" for pause or type in the
command ":pause 1 (or side 2)".

after his comeback he will type "P" or the command ":unpause 1 (or 2)"

during the break the time-stopping player will see only the black shroud so
he cant abuse the additional time for thinking about any moves.

weak points: i cant think of any.

Once implemented in the stable branch i hope it will be a frequently used
feature that will make lots of players happy.
