Disable Zephyr cadence

[GoogleCodeExporter]

There is an issue with the Zephyr HxM, and I assume with any other multi-sensor 
device, in that MyTracks automatically captures data for both heart rate and 
cadence. Cadence is not always desirable, because it creates junk data in the 
stored track when used for anything other than running. For example, if the 
Zephyr is used while cycling, the cadence data being captured is entirely 
bogus, and (maddeningly) it gets carried forward in output files like .TCX when 
the track is exported for use in systems like Strava.

Taking that a step further, what happens when you have a bluetooth HRM that 
does "cadence" like the Zephyr, and you also have an ANT+ cadence sensor on the 
bike that measures real cadence from the crank? Which "cadence" gets stored as 
"cadence"? It's problematic.

Short version: the ability to select which sensor data to store when connecting 
to a multi-sensor device like the Zephyr HxM would be very useful in 
eliminating junk data. Is this something that can be added to MyTracks?

Anyone else? Can someone at least accept the issue into a state other than 
"new"? Bueller?
