Subject: Kill-A-Watt question

I've been reverse-engineering a KAW in preparation for my article on adding memory
battery backup. I've noticed something interesting. On the "power board" there is
space for a relay that breaks the hot leg and the supporting electronics. None of
the spots are populated and there is a heavy jumper across where the relay would have
gone.

I'm curious as to what this relay was for. Has anyone ever seen a variant of the KAW
that included some sort of switching? Perhaps a built-in timer?
