A cron job is fine for starting it, but I want it to stop
on its own if it finds itself running outside its allowed window.
(Obviously this is only really needed when there is a huge
amount of data to sync, or when the network is really slow.)

Hello John,

AJL> to have a --operating-window option where you could specify an
AJL> allowed time of operation by indicating two endpoints, perhaps like
this

AJL>         --operating-window 22:00-05:00

AJL> where the times are given in HH:MM 24-hour military time.  

What about a cron-job ?

at 22:00:  chmod 755 /usr/bin/rsync
at 05:00:  chmod 644 /usr/bin/rsync

Greetings
    Dirk
