Hmmm, How about sending it a SIGSTOP to halt? and a SIGCONT to let it operate again... quite hacky and not clean altough...

I've been toying with that idea. I haven't had time for this pet project in a while, but I was going to try this indeed. If two people independently think of this, it can't be all bad :-D
