Slack's example bot has something like cron for your plugins - so your bot can initiate stuff. It would be nice if slackbot would provide such functionality.

This would be good. It would be a fairly straightforward way of implementing pro-active messaging as discussed in other issues.

A simple callback linked with a configurable timer would be cool !
