My questions to you:

#1 Does this change make sense?
#2 Should it do a) or b) for "background updates"=Off mode?

For me, enable/disable daemon is more than enough, and in that context in OFF mode it should do b) - only update while the program is active....

I understand you're looking for new stuff to work on, but for me ZapLoc is good as it is

Or maybe.... you could add an option to let it behave like Android. On Android, latitude is updated more frequent and using GPS when you are moving. But I'd probably never use this anyway
