multiple time conditions
There should be a way to add multiple time conditions to a setting. I work in retail, and in a 2 week period, I work a different time every single day. GPS location just won't work for my situation either, and I'm thinking this will be a great solution to others, rather than creating a lot of different settings for each time condition

This is now supported in Locale 1.0. To add multiple conditions of the same type, simply long-press on the Add Condition button.
Locale 1.0 is available on the Android Market today in countries that support paid apps. Full release notes are here: http://www.twofortyfouram.com/notes.html

@adam: No, Android doesn't provide reliable Contact groups support.

Somehow it looks like this does not work correctly for all conditions.
I have three conditions (including default). The first priority is setup to ring always for three contacts. The second condition (currently active) is setup to keep the phone silent during night. De default is setup with normal volume.
When anyone configured in the first condition rings, the phone just stays silent.

Can it be done by group? ie Family or VIP?

Update: Ok, so I found some people asking for similar functionality in the past. While I realize that technically OR functionality is already possible by creating multiple situations (in fact, this is currently my solution), I find this somewhat kludgey, tedious, and not apt to scaling up. If OR is tricky to impliment within a situation, can we at least meet halfway by providing the functionality to 'copy' a situation, so all I have to do is edit the condition? As a usage example, I have at least 3 different "Home" situations: There's my general purpose "home", then "home at night" for when things quiet down a bit, then there's "nightstand at home." Each one of these has a set of nuanced settings that i'd want to replicate for other locations. I don't think I have the mental capacity to recreate each one of these situations accurately.

This would be a fantastic addition - I work different hours on different days, and like the phone to be in silent vibrate mode whilst travelling. This currently means multiple settings, but being able to specify multiple times under one setting would be most excellent!

I agree. I think maybe having and Advanced Settings kind of thing to set different times for each weekday might work, e.g. a new window in which the days each have thier own time picker, or a longpress on the weekday tobring up its own time-picker might work. Just some ideas. You've probably already thought of them, though.
I'd really prefer to keep my phone settings out of my calendar, particularly since I've specified that some people can see my calendar, and they're exactly the people I don't want seeing what my phone is doing.
I get up dad-blasted early on Sundays, and need my phone to be on and loud, but Saturdays are another story.... Also, when my daughter is with me on weeknights, I pretty much mute my phone, but at those same times on weekends, she gives me a good night call that I dearly don't want to miss. The dozen profiles I have up are getting a bit laggy.

If you add these to a Google calendar, you can add one calendar condition that can contain multiple calendar events.

this could be great, because at the moment i have to define a setting for every interval i need to do something, abd adding this will reduce a lot the number of settings, also coukd be great to add also multiple battery conditions, i want to define a setting "low battery" and i want to activate it when the phone battery is less of 20% and is not connected to the charger, but is not possible.
