that's right. initial delay until viewIdleScript is called the first time.

:viewIdleScript returns either number of milliseconds before viewIdleScript
is called again; or nil to terminate (same as :setupidle(0))
:setupidle(:viewIdleScript())
would run the script explicitly directly, and then set up the idle mechanism
to call it the second time (assuming viewIdleScript didn't happen to return
nil, which would be a bug)
