Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 > 1. Set a post to be scheduled at a later date, i.e. 20/04/2015 11:30
 > 2. Wait until that time has passed and then click 'Publish', i.e. at
 21/04/2015 09:00

 As far as I can see, this is no different than creating a backdated post
 right away.

 If I set a specific date, I would expect it to be preserved, even if it's
 already in the past at the time of publishing.
