Option for users to defer running of patches during maintenance window

I need a solution

Running CMS 7.6 and I've created 2 seperate maintenace windows. One for desktop and one for laptops. Desktops will be patched at night during non production hours, However Laptops will need to be patched during the day due to the majority of the machines being offline or powered off.

I've set the window to run for 2 hours daily beginning at 3:00 PM (Agent Time) for the Laptops.

My problem is that our Senior Mgmt team is concerned of any impact with laptop users and would like the option for the user to defer pending patches until they are able. Max defer would be 5 days.

I've been looking and I don't see an option other than to clone the default plugin and then create the start time somtime in the future and then give the use the ability to run. In the end this really isn't desirable since the user would still need to go into the agent and fire them off on their own.

Any way to allow the user to defer the install and then set a threshold to run after x many days of postponed?
