[mythtv-users] sleeptimer should end frontend instead of go back to main menu

Hello All,

since i use a backend with an external frontend, i realize that it would
imho
better to end the frontend instead of going back to menu when triggered from
the sleep-timer. The remaining at the menu prevents the serving backend to
go to sleep or down, just for keeping in the menu on the frontend, while we
sleep.

If the sleeptimer would end the frontend, the connections go away and the
backend would be able to shutdown. With the right configuration, even the
connected client could shutdown.
I would change this on my own, but im a lousy cpp-programmer, so i ask
kindly if this wouldnt be an improvement?

Oppinions?

Regards,
Andreas
