It looks like my changed permissions in task scheduler worked as I got a successful automatic update last night. It is still loaded with scheduling "discontinuities" though.
Should Schedules Direct be notified of this?
Is there a way to or does EPG123 already fix this in the displayed guide in WMC?
I'm not seeing these actually in the guide but really haven't spent much time looking for them either.
Is anyone else getting these?

I would say take any discontinuity reporting from v0.9.1 with a grain of salt... there was a discontinuity there, but there was probably only 1 for the day. If using v0.9.2 and record discontinuities, that information will be useful to Schedules Direct to look at their source/database.
With 0.9.2, time discontinuities will cause epg123 to restart a timestamp group. Typically what I have seen for real discontinuities is a missing program. If program 5 ends at 9:00PM and program 6 starts at 10:00PM, then epg123 will stamp program 11 with the 10:00PM start time and there will be a gap in the guide from 9:00PM to 10:00PM.
