Stick with me on this for a sec...
One of the features I like about N1MM Logger (and I'm sure others do it too) is that if you don't make contact with a guy who's call you entered into the logger Logger will clear the entry window and place his call on the band map once you have tuned 300 Hz off his frequency.
How about adding a feature to the firmware such that if you do or don't work a split QSO the split setup is turned off as soon as you tune more than 300 Hz away from him? Pick any number of Hz you like but you get the idea.
Just a thought....
