closedAdd action "Create inactive timer"

Description
Hi,
I am using searchtimers looking generally for specific actors, directors, etc. These searchtimers often create multiple timers, for example because of the various regional channels, differing only slightly in their schedule, because of the SD/HD channels,...
For various reasons, I can't simply only search one of the various incarnation of a channel, as there are things, that are better Recorded in SD and other in HD. Thus, I have many timers that I have to switch to the inactive state in order to not record multiple times the same show and to avoid timer conflicts.
In my use case, it would require quite less manual intervention, if I could create searchtimers that sets timers in an inactive state; this way, I only have to activate the timer for the channel of interest instead of deactivating it for the various incarnations of that channel.
In other words, could you enhance epgsearch the following way:
- Create an additional action for the searchtimers, named for example "Create inactive timer", that create timers for the matches of the searchtimers, but these timers are in an inactive state.
- Maybe, in that case, it might also be better to rename the current "Record" action of the searchtimers to "Create active timer".
Many thanks in advance for taking this enhancement into account.
Cheers
