That doesn't really help those that don't have 'away' privileges. Even if you have 'away' privileges you have to turn it on for all your games since you can't do it for individual games so if you are playing a lot of games and go away for a week you can use hundreds (or thousands) of credits even if all you cared about was 1-2 tourney games that might not even start!
It would be better to find a way for players to have manually start their first turn as before or provide a 'do over' if they miss their first turn and request the do over.
