feature request: MessageSending#send_at about delayed_job

That would be nice. We've done the same thing manually with #enqueue

Delayed::Job.enqueue(Delayed::PerformableMethod.new(model, :expire, []), 0, ExpireTime.from_now)

Let me think about this a little more. I'd like to come up with a way to fold this into #send_later.

FWIW I've tried this:

def send_at(time, method, *args)
  Delayed::Job.enqueue( Delayed::PerformableMethod.new(self, method.to_sym, args), 0, time)
end

I took the concept from here: http://github.com/jstorimer/delayed_job/commit/826422f440f360e0d811665ffd423c7dad92b304 but moved it into a send_at method instead, slightly different syntax than you're suggesting. Having just done this I don't have production experience with it, but it's working just fine locally

Added #send_at(time, method, *args) for queueing jobs in the future. Closed by 930fbca
