Hmm, that is a creative workaround. 

Mark gets kudos for using the other half of his brain.

There's a clumsy workaround. Create an administrative schedule that
creates the client schedule; run it on Monday. Create another
administrative schedule that deletes the client schedule, run it on
Sunday.

Yeah, yeah, I know, it's a Stupid TSM Trick. Yet another reason to
consider moving to TSM 5.3...
