It works!
Yellow_Horror:
There is the part of client_state.xml corresponding to one of the "app-empty" tasks.
Nothing weird as far as i can see:

Probably cosmetics related to the juggling in process to get the app scheduling 'right' . I think they might have quite some playing to do to get the mechanism to work with app_info file the way we'd all like to see, so I'm expecting some related things to break and change, then be fixed again afterwards.
Yellow_Horror:
As far as i can see at Seti@Home message board, randomly stop/resume a task is a bug of 6.6.10. Will see if it is fixed in 6.6.11... or downgrade to 6.6.9.
Can someone tell me the exactly address of BOINC "wishlist"? I wish an option to suspend CUDA while a fullscreen application (other than screensaver of course) is executed. IMHO, it is the simplest way to solve "laggy DVD-player" issue.
Richard Haselgrove:
The official route is to make out a trac ticket.
You could add a comment to reinforce http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/ticket/842, which has just been postponed from 'v6.6' to 'Undetermined' (i.e. 'far future')
Richard Haselgrove:
Sorry, that seems to have backfired. David Anderson has replied, following Yellow_Horror's addition:
--- Quote from: David Anderson ---resolution set to wontfix.
Currently, there's a preference to not do GPU computing while the computer is in use, and a config option to not do any computing while particular applications are running. That's about it for now; I don't know of a way to find out if another graphics-intensive app is running.
