Thank you. It might be reasonably easily achieved:

An Applet could be written to implement a pre-emptive reboot (a timed
"Quit", I imagine, which I think will trigger the watchdog).

Tasks:

    Identify what "conditions of the user’s choosing" might be practically
  implemented and offered in an easily digestible configuration menu,
    Understand the interaction between rebooting, existing alarm settings,
  and playback state, and
    Ensure that relevant state is appropriately saved prior to the reboot,
  and restored when the Radio starts up.
Perhaps that just ends up overcomplicating matters. I don't have
sufficient knowledge to know what needs to be known.

A simpler approach might be just to reboot the first time, say, 3.00am
is encountered after, say, 20 days of uptime.
But does that really "solve" the problem and its consequences ? It may
be good enough.
