Repeating Tasks - 5th Week?

Hey, all,

I just need to know if I'm doing this wrong or if it's simply not possible. Either way is cool ... I just want to know so I can stop screwing with it. :-)

Repeating task "advanced" repeat format #2 is "The X D of each month" where X is a number and D is a day of the week.

Naturally, I have an oddball task that I need to complete ONLY on 5th Thursday of the month (if it exists). However, "The 5th Thu of every month" appears to repeat as though I had set it to the LAST Thursday of the month.

Example: If I set the due date to NOV 29 and repeat on the 5th Thursday of the month, I would expect the next occurrence to be due on JAN 31 ... because that's the next time a 5th Thursday happens.

So, does "The X D of each month" = "The last D of each month" if X > 4? Or ... am I just missing something trivial?

Thanks!

(PS: SUPER AWESOME on the Siri integration!)

Doing something like the "5th thursday of the month" will not skip over months that don't have a 5th thursday. If it can't find a 5th thursday, it will use the last thursday that it can find.
