[Greasemonkey] Any "wait" function in Javascript or in greasemonkey?

[Vikas Pandey]

Orkut.com has one of the shabbiest user-interface I have seen, but, it 
seems that their server scripts are good.

If one uses userscripts to do repetitive things they somehow catch it 
and ban the user for several hours.

One thing could be to include some time gap between consequetive 
accesses to their server. Then, the server will think that it is a human 
that is doing it because we are not using any supernatural command as such.

I can include a empty loop to kill time, but is there any "wait" sort of 
function in Javascript or in greasemonkey to provide a 5-10 second 
delay? doing absolutely nothing, just killing time to simulate the gap 
to suit human hands.

Thanks.
