I usually listen to podcasts when I go to bed and without a sleep timer they end up playing until completion when it usually only takes me 30 minutes to fall asleep.

Hi there,

You're in luck! This feature is already in there :)

If you hit the 'settings' menu item from the main screen (or anywhere it shows up) there's an item in there for a sleep timer.

Let me know if that doesn't work for you.

That's great to hear!

Would it be possible to move it to the context menu? It's a little cumbersome to get to the settings menu every time I need to use sleep mode. If that's not in the cards then how about a hot key?

I'll have to think on that. I'm already starting to get to the place where exposing features that are easily accessible but cause weird behavior (the view ones especially) are causing support issues by inadvertently toggling them. I'll let you know, though.
