I know you can un-publish something by changing the publish_from, but that can be fragile. I propose we add a pubslihed boolean to Publishable and use that as an additional filter in listings.

The idea is to un-publish something easily as well as enable elementary workflow - anybody can create a Publishable, schedule it's publication (set publish_from), but only once somebody (editor) sets the published boolean it will be visible.

For sites that don't need or want this workflow it's just a column in the database and you can set your admin to always flip that to "yes" position.
