v7.11.1 "PublishAt/UnPublishAt" on Info tab ignores workflow status

[nul800sebastiaan]

There are two use cases which produce the same result. With Umbraco 7.11.1 there is a new tab called "Info". This tab is allows editors/approvers/publishers/Administrators to set "publish/unpublish" date/time. However, in either case, when the "publish/unpublish" is set, the Umbraco background scheduling will "auto" publish/unpublish the content at the specified date and time. In other words, it ignores approval process altogether. Imagine the case where you set unpublish date (i.e. 10 minutes from now), click the "save and schedule" command button followed by the "Save and Send for Approval" button. Now the approver is away from the office and can't approve the change. However, the Umbraco background scheduler fires every minute and after 10 minutes will pick up the change remove the page from the site, disregarding approval process.

The scheduler code should take into account that the page is waiting for approval and NOT auto remove the page until the change has been approved and published.

Given that this is for v7, should this be abandoned/archived?
