Yes, I was thinking about that as well.

It's currently possible to manually run a prune job via Content > Prune All

There you have to add the prune keep parameters for each run.
This is not as convenient as if you had an already saved prune job.

I would argue that people only run a manual prune job in very specific
scenarios like when wanting to free up space. In that case, the user
would want to change the keep settings anyway.

Prune jobs have an enable checkbox to (temporarily) disable a prune job.
One can manually start a disabled prune job.

Best regards,
Stefan
