Description of the new feature / enhancement

It doesn't make sense to keep a PC on eternally. I turned on the Awake feature and a month later, I noticed my computer wasn't shutting down. Awake should be a temporary feature for a fixed amount of time.

Scenario when this would be used?

Anybody who uses Awake. 99% don't want their computer to stay awake for eternity.

Supporting information

I have no evidence, other than that other similar tools have added timers to their Caffeine feature, or whatever.
