Timing of output #7

Please change the automatic export trigger from 5 seconds after the database change to something a bit longer. Alternatively, it would less frustrating if Zotero-autoexporting is paused while I have the cursor in a text field in Zotero.

10 or 15sec? if it is too less some changes might not be saved?

I think detecting the user trying to enter text and waiting until xe is done would be ideal. If not, 10 seconds is enough for me know. I use another plugins which also locks the interface whenever I add files (Zotfile, gives nice names to attachments), and I am always worried there will be some race condition.

Well you are just pointing the right direction - I get the trigger from Zotero. So theoretically this is an issue of them when releasing the event. But all in all I published a new version yesterday with 10 secs delay.
