Pausing and playing.
I think that being able to pause games and animations would be a great idea. If I'm ever in the middle of watching some amazing and really long animation, or playing some game that took forever for me to get to where I was, and someone comes up and asks me something, my options are limited. I could either blow them off entirely, (extremely rude) or hit stop. Hitting stop is significantly more considerate, but then once they are done I have to start over again. This is where I think a pause button would come in handy.

Pausing and playing.
This can be done with scripts. Just ask the game creator to add a pause and play function. For a button: I think that being able to pause games and animations would be a great idea.

when this sprite clicked
if <(pause?) = [false]> then
set [pause? v] to [true]
switch costume to [pause v]
broadcast [pause v]
else
set [pause? v] to [false]
switch costume to [play v]
broadcast [play v]
end

Indeed, it is a duplicate (from 2012!)

This is my signature. It appears below all my posts. Discuss it on my profile, not the forums. Here's how to make your own.
