Timelines not bound to calendar dates

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Often projects don't have a precise start date, so it would be good to
compile the project with reference to a 0-day and see the amount of day
form day 0 instead of dates.

When the starting date is set it should be possible to define it and have
the grpah change accordingly.

As an alternative there should be a "Move all" option to shift ALL tasks of
a certain amount of days in the future or in the past.

There is one aspect from Issue 201 missing. There i requested not only defining 
the start of tasks and durations relative to a day 0 but also to use Month 
instead of days for start days and durations. Which i believe already has been 
filed as a feature request otherwise i would have to file this in a new 
request. Pleas let me know if this is necessary. 

Thanks
Christoph

It is always nice to have one issue per one problem. There is no request about 
task duration in months, so feel free to submit one.

I was about to submit a feature request regarding this but found this! 
Additionally however, would it be possible even to have some Gantt charts 
completely independent of dates/time. This would allow for projects that are 
ongoing or non-urgent that just get worked on when you have time. That way no 
deadlines are assigned, the project simply gets completed when it does.

I'm a newbie. Has this really been unresolved for 5 years? It seems pretty 
important. Not a "must have," but very high on a "really useful to have" list.
