Anacron-like functionality - execute tasks that were scheduled on machine poweroff

[danihodovic]

Jobber is a great cron replacement that I've started to use on my servers. Thank you for the development efforts.

However for locally running tasks on my laptop it isn't as good because it doesn't execute tasks that are scheduled when the laptop is turned off. Anacron offers this functionality. Would you consider adding something like this in the future?

@danihodovic I am just curious, do you know much about how Anacron implements this functionality? i.e. Does it power the device on to run the process? Does it then power the device back down after the process completes?

I think it runs the tasks the next time the machine powers on.
