For even more convenience they ought to add a flag to the "nsrck -l7 -t..." 
command that would automatically adjust the retention period for the save sets 
in question when you are trying to do a restore.

For convenience, here's LGTsc12672:

LGTsc12672
The nsrck -L7 -t command can no longer be used solely to perform a recovery of a
client index where the save sets have passed the period identified in the browse
policy.
The following operations must be performed in addition to running the nsrck
command on the save sets in order to recover the index information:
1. Identify a save set containing the index for the desired time/client.
2. Adjust the retention of the identified client file index to a date in the 
future.
3. Change the mode to notrecyclable for the identified client file index.
4. Identify the save sets required to browse (for example, the full backup and 
all
the following incremental backups prior to the desired date).
5. Set a new retention period for each of the individual save sets to a date in 
the
future.
6. Change the mode to notrecyclable for each of the individual save sets.
7. Run the nsrck -L7 -t command.
8. Browse the save sets and perform the recover as usual.
