SUMMARY
I am noticing that I come across the delayed save dialog far more often when I am using the appimage than when I'm using my own build.

To identify what is causing this, I would like to see the actual actions that cause this behaviour. Theoretically, we should be able to get human friendly info from the kis_strokes themselves, they have a string for the undo command. However, I don't know enough about the update scheduler to try and hack it so I could get information about the stroke(s) it is currently processing. Furthermore, that information then needs to be funneled through kis_image before kis_delayed_save_dialog can access it.

Given that I am seeing that the update scheduler seems to be able to track how many jobs it's still processing, maybe we should use that kind of information too for the delayed_save_dialog.

I think this would benefit user feedback in general.
