[BUG] Monthly tasks repeating bi-monthly?

Hello,

I have a serious problem with current behavior of TD (which annoys me greatly because i could miss something important):
When i setup the due date of a task to 31.03.2014, the repeat interval to monthly, and finish the task now, the next one will have due date 31.05.2014 - this is 2 months away, not 1. The next due date shouuld be set to last day of next month, which is 30.04.2014.

I read in FAQ that you suggest setting due date to 1'st of month and reminder 1 day earlier, but it won't behave well in sorting, because i always sort tasks by due date, and this one would be off by 1 day.

Is there any chance you will fix it, or it's going to stay like this forever?

In the future, we plan to offer an option to have a task repeat on the last day of the month. However, we're unable to comment on a time frame for implementation.

Thanks.

The current behavior is the way that most calendar applications work (iCal, Google Calendar, etc). We chose to mimic their behavior for consistency. In the future we will have a "on the last day of the month" option which will work the way you expect by adjusting itself depending on the number of days in the month.
