I have seen an SA0X on the stby list several hours before departure time on a mainline flt. Granted it's been a few months since I've seen this happen. A HUGE stink was raised about this at United last year and we were told that it was remedied.
It's not just rollovers. If the original reservation is booked at SA0 and then the flight is changed to mainline on the same route, it'll be SA0. They put a band aid to fix only one part of it. They'd have to completely redo the programming to permanently fix it. For Express, if the first flight is mainline and then Express, it'll be booked SA5 all the way. It's working against the Express people too.
