Problem:

Addition of weekday and weekend only durations. Currently, you can schedule a task to execute daily every n hours/minutes/seconds, but there's no way to specify you want this to occur only Monday through Friday (business days) or only on Saturday and Sunday. Sure you can code this into the pages you are executing, but that code has to be used with each task. It's much better if this can be made part of the scheduler.

Yes, please! This will allow me to remove a lot of existing code and administrative support. I might suggest that if this is going to be done, then you might as well allow me to pick the days of the week instead of weekday vs weekend, especially since the definition of "weekend" varies globally. I'd hate to see the definition of "weekend" defined at a server level, which would limit its usefullness for applications that cover data/customers on a global basis.
