Auxiliary memory in IFTTT

[twostar]

In a previous post I've requested adding IFTTT rule chaining, so instead of rules being something like "IF input THEN output" you can say "IF input THEN rule2" and rule2 applies further conditions.  Is the internal state you've requested something like this, where you could use a chained rule to store state?

In my case I've temporarily used relays to implement rule chaining, so an IFTTT rule switches an output which switches a relay which is fed to the input for the next rule, but doing it in software would be nicer.
