Someone should try to come up with a better schedule producer but until then, it is a nice idea, just wont happen.

I think this is a pretty bad excuse. It can't be that hard to allow at least the following logic for rainout cases:
1. If the game is already long enough to be an official game, call it.
2. If in a series, schedule a double-header the next day.
3. If this series is already full but the teams play another series later in the season, schedule a double-header then.
4. If no double-header is possible, but the teams have a common day off, schedule a game there (possibly add an exception for, say, the all-star game).
5. If none of the above is possible, the game magically continues just like it does now.
