I want to use the generic thermostat to control a device that does not have a switch. Initially I tried using an input_boolean, but found this is not supported and will not be supported.

The above comment suggests using a template switch, which I had not considered but which worked well. Therefore, I'd like to recommend adding this suggestion to the generic thermostat documentation to help future users who are trying to do something similar to me. This could be simply an additional mention in the introductory paragraph, like so:
