I am changing the thread subject, so that people can notice that you are
suggesting to add a new feature into Org mode.
I will try to briefly describe it as I understand it:
You want to add a new command that can start multiple countdown timers
one after another, with predefined durations.
The use case is Pomodoro and similar setups where you want to split
the work into work/rest/work/... cycles.

You will be acknowledged automatically as you submit a patch - when
applied, the patch will be under your name. We will also put you into
https://orgmode.org/worg/contributors.html.
See https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html detailing how to
contribute to Org mode.
But let's see what others think about the idea first.
