   I would like to revive the discussion around this PR as I feel it adds helpful functionality. My scenario is that I need a DAG to run Tuesday Through Saturday populating data for the previous day, at first pass this seems like the out of the box configuration with a 1-5 schedule would work but as we all know with the run at end of interval logic, execution date Friday doesn't kick until Monday, and I need it to go on Saturday. I know I can work around this by adding a short circuit operator and running the dag everyday, but then I have to add an extra operator to every dag that I want to behave this way and if I'm looking at dag run times, I'll have artificially lower numbers on the weekends.
