Bug Description

Commands like mplayer often run for longer than 10 seconds, but I don't need a notification when they finish, since they'll finish whenever I close them. I'd like to have a simple filter mechanism for uninteresting long-running commands.

That would be nice indeed.
For example, when I use Vim, it always tells me when I close it.

Maybe undistract-me could come with a list of common uninteresting long-running commands already in the filter, such as top, vi, vim, nano etc.
