I know this is an old thread, but I only just got around to updating
SqueezeCenter to 7.3 this weekend and found that ExtendedAlarm didn't
work, leading me here.

I originally bought my Squeezebox explicitly for a smart alarm clock
that wouldn't wake me with inane commercial radio morning jabber.  I
modified the original Alarm clock plugin way, way back to add an
extended fade-in time to help with waking up gently.  If you set the
alarm for 8am with a 15 minute fade-in, it was smart enough to start the
alarm at 7:45 and would reach the full alarm volume setting at 8am. 
After finding ExtendedAlarm (which I love, thank you!) and hacking an
extended fade-in preference in minutes, I've been very happy.

For those who want to wake gently but not rely on an always-soft alarm
to do so, I think you'd get what you want from a long fade-in option in
an alarm.  Having to juggle two different alarms is a pain if I want to
make a quick, one-time change to my wake up time  (though I did toy with
linked alarms as in "20 minutes after alarm X").

I guess I'll be modifying another Alarm clock or sticking with
SqueezeCenter 7.1.  Sigh.
