Change 'Next week' date option to '+7 days' #318

Open ngm opened 2 months ago

ngm commented 2 months ago

When setting a date (for scheduled or deadline), you have three options for quickly choosing a date:

It seems to be that the purpose of these is to say it's urgent so I'll do it today, it's not urgent but it's important so I'll do it tomorrow, or it's not urgent or important so I'll do it in a week from now.

This is good, except:

Next week sets the date to the following Monday. It does this regardless of whatever the current day is.

So if today is Sunday, choosing tomorrow or next week amounts to the same thing.

I think it would be better if 'Next week' was replaced with '+7 days'. So really those options mean +0, +1, or +7.

It could just be in my way of doing task management that +7 makes more sense. Others might prefer 'next week' always meaning next Monday. (I'd be interested to hear why).

In which case, perhaps it could be a config option as to what that button does.
