Conditionals for Automations

It would be great to have the ability to add conditionals to the automations in the app. It would only need to be as simple as adding something like “if system set to: (Pick one) [Off] [Home] [Away]” at the top of the Automation setup page in the app. 

As an example, when I leave the house for an extended period of time and don’t expect to arrive home until late, I will set my system to [Away]. However, my existing automation will switch my system to [Home] mode at 11pm, which disables the interior motion sensors and triggers an instant alarm when I open the door rather than the delay that [Away] mode has. I would’ve preferred that my automation had a conditional so that it is only invoked if the system is [Off], otherwise the automation does not trigger.

This change would also have the added benefit of not needing to remember to turn on “Vacation Mode” in the app, so I can just hit the [Away] button as I leave for the airport and the system will stay in that mode (with conditionals set up properly).
