I'm using UI++ in a task sequence (another tool besides MEM/SCCM)... but I'd love it if UI++ could be configured to give the user a drop-down choice of times (5 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, etc.) and then click a button to "snooze" the activity. UI++ would still be running, but silently (the interface would disappear) until the specified time has elapsed, and then re-appear. Even better, is to set a limit on the number of times the user can click the "snooze" button.
So, for preflight on a job that will reboot the computer, this would allow the user to delay starting the job until a little later in the day.
Example:
UI++ pops up with language & a countdown, snooze option (go now, or snooze)
user chooses to snooze for 1 hour
after an hour, UI++ pops up again with language & a countdown, snooze option (go now, or snooze)
user chooses to snooze for 10 minutes more
after 10 minutes, UI++ pops up again with language & a countdown, but no snooze option (snooze_limit=2, go now button)
after the countdown, or user clicks "go now" - UI++ returns a success code (zero) & closes.
This success code tells the server to send the next task in the sequence.
