I think those aren't the killer use cases driving this. We've had a rash of home burglaries and car break-ins around the surrounding neighborhoods over the past few months, including burglaries where the thieves first broke into a car and then used the garage door opener to get into the house. I am planning an HA system that includes alerting when doors are opened, as well as motion cameras ... being able to also turn on lights and execute IFTTT/Tasker jobs is icing on the cake, but secondary to my primary goal of knowing who's moving around my house and getting them on camera. ADT/CPI type active monitoring services are largely useless in preventing typically break-ins, and the monthly service fees mount quickly.
