I'd prefer them to be named something like pausing_keep and
pausing_toggle, it pollutes the "namespace" less.
Also if we ever make an alphabetical list of prefixes they will be close
together.
btw. about that was_.. variable, isn't there already some other variable
that keeps track of the paused state? Adding another one makes it likely
that they will get out of sync after a few broken patches *g*

P.S.: I'll be on holiday for a bit more than a week after Tuesday, just
in case you wonder :-)
