[org-timer] mode line request

Hi!

Would it be possible for timers set using org-timer-set-timer to display
their current value in the mode line?

I think all of the required pieces to implement this exist already, but
I haven't been able to get it to work.  The relevant functions seem to
be org-timer-update-mode-line and parts of
org-timer-show-remaining-time.

I'd like to be able to watch as the timer counts down towards zero.  If
this behavior isn't desired generally, could we introduce a variable to
control whether these timers are shown in the mode line?

Thanks,
/au

I'm working on this.

I've also simplified the code behind temporary manually-set timers: 
you can now only add one timer.  It's not useful to allow many such 
timers.

While doing this, I fixed a bug about a remaining timer that the user
could see when calling `org-timer-show-remaining-time'.  Thanks to
Frédéric Couchet for catching this.

Ping?  I know you're a busy fella, but have you had a chance to look at
this.  If not, any takers?  If not, any tips for an example function I
can look at for how to set and update the mode-line?

Thanks,
