Feature request: Inactivity timeout for driver enable #215

If this already exists, I couldn't find a reference to it, currently the "enable" pins to external drivers are setup to either disable after a very short delay or be permanently on. Since the drivers being disabled means they will lose position and require rehoming, a more lengthly delay in minutes, able to be set from 1-90 mins or something to that effect would be beneficial to save electricity in the case the machine is left on.

This is a good candidate for writing a plugin?
