If the candidates are anything like me then any optional or bonus features will be considered mandatory. I have no way of knowing what percentage of other candidates do the optional work and so I have no way of accurately assessing the risk of not doing the optional work myself. I will ignore your suggested timebox if the optional work will take longer and then I'll be a little pissed off at you for how long your take home assignment took me.
