It would have been useful for me if 'pre-scheduled would override the
timestamp-specific lead time.  I don't know if this would be useful
widely enough (I myself don't remember having wished it in other
occasions) to justify changing the behavior of 'pre-scheduled or
adding another value (like 'pre-scheduled-override-local) that does
override.

Perhaps we should at least explicitly document the current situation
in the docstring?  Just add an observation at the end:
    Note that an eventual explicit lead time in the timestamp
overrides the effect of setting this option to 'pre-scheduled or a
number.

"eventual" above means "if it exists"; "eventual" has this meaning
(among others) in Portuguese; I am not sure if it also does in
English.
