This is probably not the way an expert would do it, but here is an idea.

Run the handler when movestack stops firing.

Send a delayed message every time movestack fires.  Either get rid 
of old ones or have some sort of check in the message handler.  
When the message handler runs and movestack has not fired in some 
period, it calls your custom handler.

Another thought...  Does your custom handler really care?
