Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 > Posts -> Edit - change Status to "Published" and Save -- nope

 Not sure about this step. There's no "Published" status for scheduled
 posts on Edit screen, only "Scheduled", "Pending Review" and "Draft".

 > Posts -> Quick Edit - change Status to "Published" and Save -- nope,
 still Scheduled[[BR]]
 > Posts -> Edit change Scheduled Time to less than one hour in the future
 -- doesn't publish

 Confirmed as expected, since the date is still in the future.

 > Posts -> Edit change Scheduled Time to more than an hour in the future
 -- posts on time.

 Can't reproduce this. But there's an UI glitch in this case regarding
 "Schedule for"/"Published on" text mentioned by garyc40 and addressed by
 his patch: [comment:ticket:8368:8].

 The only way to "unschedule" a post with current UI is to set post time in
 the past.

 > Setting the scheduled time to the past does not publish it.

 It should (and does so on my clean install).

 #16068 contains another explanation of the UI issue, though it was closed
 as a duplicate of #8368.
