Default Smarter Programmable Thermostat?

The honeywell touchscreen models are also fully programmable and I
believe will solve problem number 2. Not sure if any solve #1 though.

But, I don't think #1 is that big of deal. If the heat comes on 10
mins before the setback, all that means is the house will have a little
extra heat, so the heat won't need to come back on for a little longer
during the setback. In essence, it means the setback period could
have been 10 mins longer, but that diff is so small it's not going to
amount to anything really.
