Just for comparison purposes, I'm using the latest version of Windows Live Writer Beta as my main blog editor which also publishes using XML-RPC. I often "post as draft" and what you're seeing is not occurring when using WLW. ScribeFire might be sending some sort of incorrect data when posting as draft that isn't agreeing with 2.7. It wouldn't be the first time that's ever happened. I've used it off and on since it was called PFF and it's often gone funky on me.

There's a recently updated version of ScribeFire (3.1.5). I load it up into FX 3.1 (nightly builds) later on today and see if I get the same thing you're seeing.

I'm using ScribeFire and the built in support for XML-RPC. Their are two weird things going on and they are related. If I select the option to publish the post as a draft, when I login to WordPress and edit the draft, the Publish button will not be displayed and instead, it's replace with a SCHEDULE button. If I save the post and play around with the settings, I can get the SCHEDULE button to be replaced with the PUBLISH button.

Just 5 minutes ago, I published the post bypassing the draft option from scribefire. When I logged into the WordPress backend, the publish button was gone an the post somehow was scheduled to be published. When I clicked on the EDIT link to edit the post status, all I can choose is SCHEDULED, PENDING, or DRAFT.

I've clicked on the EDIT link and have reset the time for when the post was scheduled and when I did that and then saved the changes, the post status went to PUBLISHED.

This seems like really weird behavior to me and I'm not sure if it's the fault of WordPress, The XML-RPC or ScribeFires interaction with WP2.7.
