You misunderstood me. My intention was that you could still play while your vacation is active, but commiting would not break your vacation.
you would be able to make a turn during your vacation to prevent stalling.

I don't play ladder games, but is ladder stalling really that big of an issue?

Well okay, then.
But my proposal is more oriented towards tournaments and open games, so maybe make it so you can't make a turn in ladder games?

No, the problem is not the "vacations not honored" setting.
It's the fact you can't take a vacation in your other games, while still playing in those games. Your only options is surrendering or getting booted.

The problem is I can't keep up with all my games when I am to busy to play, so I want an extended boot timer for when I am to busy to play consistently.

For me the problems (plural) are:
(A) not honouring the vac settings REASON: Excepting certain cases where maybe it's required like certain tournaments, ladders, etc. I have heard a fair bit about "ladder stalling", so maybe they need a preventative mechanism there, but do it in a way that doesn't break vac for the entire game. Or change the way ladders work so stalling isn't beneficial. That's the real problem, and it gets taken out on functionality like this. If the problem is engaging vacation and playing SOME ladder games but not other ladders game - fine, cancel the vac for ladder games if that happens. Maybe vac doesn't make sense for ladder games anyhow b/c they're all in a season anyhow. I'm talking about normal games here. Maybe vac doesn't apply to tournaments either - not sure on that one. They don't have a "season" like ladders, so maybe it's not as important.
(B) canceling the vac if I make a move REASON: I don't have time to make moves in all my games, but maybe I have time to make a handful of moves. Let's say I have 70 games (I do) and it takes 4+ weeks to "spin down" to a lower quantity because many go on for at least that long, quite often longer for the big maps, high # of players. And sometimes it's not actual vacation I'm going on, I just have a few really busy days or a really busy week, and would rather not time out in all 70 games. But I still might be able to make 1-2 moves that week. I don't get the "all or nothing", play all your games or play none of them philosophy outside of the ladder stalling discussion.
