Yes but since BackupPC_nightly runs on the first entry (1), omitting
midnight might be intentional to give the running backups some extra
time to complete.  You might want to rotate the list a bit to make the
nightly run happen later in the morning when everything should be
finished.

I think 0 should work there too.
