Welcome to the community and cool that you want to fix it on your own. 
Actually your mail is beeter placed at the developers list:

The proble is I never used ktimetracker on my own. I think option 1 is a good 
idea. Because it is a third option you can make at this point. I would expect, 
if you go with option 3, than you end up, that it won't never stop tracking. 
Because the desktop on which the timetracker is actiong will ever be active 
afterwards.

If you needs any help to create the patch please ask. I'd like to help. It is 
a quite small task that should be good to get in touch with the code :) 


Regads,
