It means that in the default configuration it is unlikely to run on systems that are switched off overnight. There's nothing to stop you shipping a cron.daily and a sample to put in cron.d if people want it (or shipping both - it's not like it's going to be a problem to have both). -- "You grabbed my hand and we fell into it, like a daydream - or a fever."
