I like your approach; last week I travelled out of town and had to manually change the refresh period to every two days in the config file...and then forgot to change it back on my return.
A nice feature to add would be the ability to redefine individual account refresh rates "on the fly" from events and/or scripts. Maybe one can use a script to edit the config file but I'm not sure if the PI would have to be restarted to recognize the change...and its not an elegant solution.
I use this PI mostly to remind my wife and I when our battery levels (iPhones, iPads) fall below 25%. Alerts are dissumulated by voice over the house intercom during regular announcements, by email and by alert popup (using Jon00's Network Monitor and Control package). It avoids our leaving the house with a dead iPhone or preparing for bedtime reading with a dead iPad. I haven't really developed any "location" routines yet.
