Routeplanner Suggestion: Show driving and pause time

Is it possible to show the total driving and pause time besides the duration in the routes view and route information?

I would love to see this.. Its a pain having to keep using the tools calculator

@Berrie-Roelofs-0 I think it is a nice idea but it is not one I can get excited about
the current route duration/driving times are just estimates, depending on which route calculator you use they can differ by several hours over a long day
any pause time entered is also just going to be a guess, so is also going to very inaccurate

my current method is based on the experience of riding many MRA routes & knowing the pace I ride
I don't believe/trust the durations shown & only use them as an indicator of an easy day, a moderate day or a very long day
pauses I just make a rough guess, an hour+ for lunch, a couple of half hour coffee stops & maybe x2 ten-fifteen minute petrol stops, so 2 - 2.5 hours of stops over a day is going to as accurate in real terms as anything else

any total number = pause + duration is going to be pretty meaningless & is just going to be judged as another indicator based on experience

I plan my routes by a rough drive time. I then started adding pauses to estimate my final arrival time. Predictions work pretty well for me in both cases but not together because when pauses are added which is a great feature, I lose what I was using as a drive time estimate. The calculator tool helps obviously but I have no quick reference
