I didn't find that "Pause" was under a right-click menu and thought that
it was not possible. Hmm... I bet I'm not going to be the only one to
miss it. Interesting UX finding :)

Thanks for finding that out!

So we don't need DAVE to pause and resume but we need people to find out
the option in the right-click menu.
