Option to restart the whole machine on CRON defined time. Useful to keep the machine clean and working by periodically restarting it.

Well i can add a CRON config in deb package doing that...? But for now you can just do

crontab -e under root and just put 0 0 * * * shutdown -r in there?

I think we will leave this as OPT-IN and not implemented any way in this package since setting this up is super simple, i have created HOWTO for it here https://github.com/Salamek/chromium-kiosk/blob/master/.docs/README.md#periodic-reboot
