Comment (by mnelson4):

 Actually one comment though: the name `scheduled_to_publish` or just
 `scheduled` would be a more intuitive name than `date_floating`, speaking
 as one less familiar with the established jargon. I think this name would
 make more sense on published posts too.
 I think this name corresponds especially well to the post editing page,
 when posts are scheduled or not.
 To be exact, when the column `post_date_gmt=0000-00-00 00:00:00`, or when
 the post was already published, it would be false, but when the post is a
 draft and has any other `post_date_gmt`, it would be true.
 Thoughts on this name suggestion?
