+1 I would also like to see this feature implemented. I am working on making my entity_controllers configurable from the ui and the lack of the feature is the only thing that blocks me. Especially I need this to make use of the input_datetime elements to set the start and end time of the night mode.

I started some initial work on this branch but facing issues withthe Home Assistant template class. See this line. any idea how to implement async_render render here? EC requires a response at the time the t.render() function is called. Not sure if it is possible to use async there.
