Virtual thermostat setpoint device offline?

Hi guys. I'm trying to understand something about the virtual Thermostat Setpoint device. I have created one of these to manage my actual Z-Wave thermostat. The Z-Wave thermostat exposes a setpoint device of its own but it doesn't seem to work properly (another issue). The virtual setpoint device combined with some blocky/JSON calls works well instead.

Anyway, my question is: Why does this virtual setpoint device turn red in the UI when it hasn't been used in a while? All my other virtual switches don't do this. Is there a way to override this behaviour?

Thanks.

Same issue as discussed here:

Seems like there is need for some kind of setting that controls this behaviour.

Thanks for that. I didn't know it had been discussed previously. I'll post some comments there...
