Comment (by bodohugobarwich):

 Therefore my proposition would be a Function {{{wp_last_scheduled()}}}\\
 which would look for the biggest timestamp for a given hook
 {{{#!php
 <?php
 function wp_last_scheduled( $hook, $args = array() ) {
         $crons = _get_cron_array();
         $key = md5(serialize($args));
         $lasttimestamp = 0;
         if ( empty($crons) )
                 return false;
         foreach ( $crons as $timestamp => $cron ) {
                 if ( isset( $cron[$hook][$key] ) )
                        if ( $timestamp > $lasttimestamp )
                                $lasttimestamp = $timestamp;
         }

         if ( $lasttimestamp > 0 )
                return $lasttimestamp;
         else
                return false;
 }

 }}}
