Patch schedule delay

Perhaps I have simply overlooked this in the admin guide...

After upgrading to 5.2, I notice a new option on my patch schedules called "Delay Schedule by X minutes"...can someone explain this?

This is used in concert with the Run on next connection option. So the idea is if a machine comes online that has missed it's schedule the patching would wait for them to get their day started (or get coffee or whatever) before barraging the machine with patching the moment they connected. I'd also encourage using the new alerts feature on patch schedules that are set to run at next connection.
