I scratch my head wondering ... why some people oppose so aggressively to a simple feature request that just aims to get rid of workarounds. After all OF and GTD is all about getting things (and esp. workarounds) out of your head to free up capacity for the fun stuff.

Life has endless examples for "every 3rd Saturday of the month".

It's not about making things pretty.
It's not about making things just differently.

It's purely about ease of use.

So why not just include the option and that's it. No big deal. And certainly no reason to get up in arms to rather stick with workarounds - one should think...

I thought the discussion here would rather be around the HOW to implement such a basic in a lean and beautiful way...

Cheers everyone
