There is no built in function like this... it would be nice though - I am writing one exactly like it right now.

One idea we had from a previous application was to simply have an application timer look at and store the current form and current control - then when the interval has elapsed, look at that again. If it is the same, shut down the program.

Since there is a possibility that the user could be in the same place, we are going to prompt for interaction, if there is none, we will quit.
