I agree with you Aureeanna, more so that it is easy to program in a timer. it takes only 30 min to do it. not to say that the timer can read the date from the Internet, not from your system, and thus no issue with you getting it active then disconnecting and keep setting the clock back. The main question in my view is: As a company, are we really looking to enhance our customers experience with our software, or not? Things like that build customer royalty, especially when other vendors may come up with a competing "Free" product.
