[TW-1644] monthly recurrent task shift
Miguel de Val-Borro on 2015-08-01T14:40:06Z says:
I have a recurrent task as shown below that was initially set up on the 12th of the month with a monthly recurrence. Each succesive task has been shifting slowly so that now the task appears in the beginning of the month instead of the 12th.

This is probably due to the fact that TW currently equates the monthly recurrence with 30 day recurrence cycle.

That makes sense. Is it possible to have a recurring task on the same day of the month?
Paul Beckingham on 2015-08-04T23:43:47Z says:
If you have a recurring task, and the recurrence is set to "monthly", it should not creep forwards in time. If it does, that's a bug.
There are unit tests that verify this, but there are also reports of daylight savings affecting the time/date.
