Yeah I though of exactly those two options too!

After thinking some more about it, obviously it's only worth waking for
the EOD action if it's custom (so not just to shut it down again) but
ultimately there are custom actions that may also be irrelevant for a
shutdown system, so the extra checkbox gives ultimate flexibilty while
not wasting power (and hdd wear, etc.) to wake just to wait 40 minutes
and then shut down again. Maybe put it by the custom command text box as
something like 'wake system to perform this action'.
