Previously, we relied on an ugly hack where users could pause their swapping availability by setting their preferred and willing parties to the same party. However we needed to ditch that in order to address the obvious usability problems that causes, as mentioned in #70.

So let's split the pause functionality out into this separate issue, to work on later.

@aspiers Really need your input on the UI. for 'swaps_paused' (as suggested by you above) I could implement a check box for 'swaps paused' but that doesn't sound very slick .. maybe it will do for the moment though.

That sounds great to me!

Reviewing this as part of #561, as the issue is linked from the FAQ.

Can I check that the 'set both willing and preferred to the same party' hack no longer works?

Doubly correct: it no longer works, and also yes, you can check that simply by trying it 😜
