Heart beat for better duration tracking
Today we can't keep track of duration for single page visits or last page visit. With heart beats this would be solved

Is there an ETA? Most analytics services have problems with this, which could set OpenPanel apart with this feature. Since OpenPanel is event-based, this could perhaps be solved with the Page Visibility API instead of a heartbeat. If hidden, send the event session_idle_start, and if visible again, send session_idle_stop or something along those lines. The time in between could then be calculated from the duration or used additionally for an idle metric. I have no idea if this is easy to implement, but that's how I imagine it as a non-programmer.
