When building sites for newspaper they often have complex workflows:
- Creating of node
- in revision
- online
- unpublished

Well, in most cases they want to put articles timebased online and unpublish them again on a certain date and time. Right now this would need to happen in two steps. Set a date, when the node is online, when it's online set a time/date, when it's in the offline state. Probably the best way would be to have next to every state also a date field, give the administrator the possibility to select states that can have a date field.

What do you think? Any interest in such a feature?

Since this request is over a year old, I'm going to assume a solution was found or you've moved on. If not, please get updated to the latest versions of all modules and make a request for it against Drupal 7 and I'll be glad to take a look at it.
