Is it grammatical and idiomatic in Br E to use 'yet' with Future Simple, as in:

She will wake up at six. Her husband will not leave for work yet, and the children will be sleeping.

(I wrote this). I understand that you would prefer Future Perfect.
 
No. Will not have left yet.
 
It's the same in BrE.
