We do this by individual requests to extend walltime and as sysadmin use the "qalter -l walltime=720:00:00 ,jobid>" to increase to 720 hours say. If it isn't too many jobs involved in the requests, we can easily handle this. Otherwise, a queue per user or time slot, protected with ACL, is going to be the only way around this.
