SUGGEST: Stop Training On #Reps or ElapsedTime

Stopping training appears to only have an Error control.

Other stoppage events would be very useful if:

# Reps/Epochs Limit Exceeded
Elapsed Time Limit Exceeded (or End Time Exceeded)
# Reps/Epochs After Min Error Limit Exceeded

These can be applied to either the Teaching Lesson or the Validation Lesson.

For example, the following could be specified:

Stop training once 5000 reps/epochs have been made past the minimum validation error of the run. (The teaching lesson weights were saved for the minimum validation error iteration.)
