Setting to only send exact location data while in a zone #4334

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I don't want to track family members all the time, only when we are inside the home zone. I want this feature to be able to track where the car was parked around the neighborhood.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add a setting to send exact location only when person is in the zone. I would set a separate neighborhood zone that would cover a couple of streets around my home zone.

Describe alternatives you've considered, if any
Another idea is to trigger a notification on the phone to ask the user if they could send their exact location once. I would trigger it when the phone disconnects from the car's Bluetooth.

Additional context
None.

a setting here may complicate the code a bit too much especially when considering multiple servers, this might be a good candidate for notification command so the user can take control.
