Return value
Type: guint
A watch id
Adds a watch for a specific idle time. The callback will be called
when the user has accumulated interval_msec milliseconds of idle time.
This function will return an ID that can either be passed to
meta_idle_monitor_remove_watch(), or can be used to tell idle time
watches apart if you have more than one.
Also note that this function will only care about positive transitions (user’s idle time exceeding a certain time). If you want to know about when the user has become active, use meta_idle_monitor_add_user_active_watch().
