Subject: Crafty analysis suggestion

This may already be possible, but if it isn't I'd like to suggest adding it to
a future version. When analysing a list of positions or a game, it would be nice
to be able to set a time limit for the position, so that when this time is
reached the search completes on the present ply depth.

As an example, if you normally search a list of positions for 1 hour each,
with this option you could chose say 40 min. When a ply depth completes after
this time it's not likely to complete searching the primary move before 1 hour
so it may as well move on. Some other moves may take a bit over an hour but
you will get more analysis knowing that depth has been completed. I think this
will make the analysis time be used more efficiently, any commemts?
