--- Comment #32 from Martin Renvoize <[email protected]> ---
I didn't want to get stuck in the queue waiting for any of the schedulers
rewrite bugs so it was a deliberate choice not to base this code upon them. 
Cron is a simple system and this is really designed for simple use cases... the
idea being we just want a task to run each 'night', but we're not too fussy as
to when.

We already have a hook added to trigger plugin actions prior to the fines job
and I like the idea of slowly adding such triggers to the start/end of other
regular tasks so one can dovetail workloads as required.. but for general
'process stuff daily' task I personally feel this is enough.

You can happily gain a little more control over the scheduling within your
plugin code by doing a date comparison as the first part of the job in your
plugin so one could for instance set the tasks to take place ever X days rather
than nightly, or every Friday for example.

It would also allow simple installation of the existing recalls plugin which
currently requires lots of background manipulation to install.
