"""A request that is already a cron line, read exactly before the model; standard library only.
"*/5 * * * *", "run 0 9 * * mon-fri" and "@daily" are parsed, not guessed. Seconds fields,
L, W, #, ?, H, @reboot, @every and 6 or 7 fields are UNSUPPORTED; a line with a value out
of range, or a date that never comes, is INVALID. Any other text goes to the model.
A port may skip this file: the model still answers pasted cron, less often right.
