What's your use case for this please?

[alexbowers]

I have image processing that I only want to run weekend early mornings (to lessen the load on the servers).

So something like this may be used by me. (This isn't exactly what I do, but an example).

$event->between('02:00', '06:00')->weekends()->getExpression()

As long as you have a use case that's fine. I was just guarding against adding it for the sake of it. :)

[alexbowers]

I currently do it in a somewhat messy way, so it is possible without this addition, but it requires the use of the cron method, and manually adding the 0,6 which is not ideal. Much less readable, and since we already have the weekdays figured weekends is the way it should be done. :)

A while ago I've created a patch for carbon that deals with weekends on different countries
briannesbitt/Carbon#380

Maybe you can implement something like that as well since weekends might not only be saturdays and sundays
