calendar/time support enabling scheduleling when camera is on/off

Im probably not the first one asking for this, but its such an obvious thing to add.
Rather than monitor all the time, it would be a great feature if all or selected cameras could be turned on/off based on time of day.
It could also be useful to extend this feature to include a calender where specific dates along with time could be managed.
Only way I found so far is to set up a cron task that in effect stop or start zm based on my cron schedule.
This works, but would in effect affect all(!) cameras - for me it doesnt really matter, but I can see situations where only a selected few cameras should continue or stop monitoring.
Another feature request is to include a proper email setup with(!) a test email sendout - its silly being forced to configure email and then force an event *that in effect force me to go to a different page* and see if the mail is sent.
Could have been easy enough to include something similar to how for example NextCloud offer its email setup - same page and you can simply click "test email" - if it doesnt work, then I havent moved from the setup page in question and can simply make tweak and test it again.
