Monthly recurrence by day rather than date

[GregSutcliffe]

Hopefully I'm just missing something, but in case not, here's an RFE:

Steps to reproduce

1. Create an event
2. Set recurrence to Monthly
3. Notice that you can only give a number

Expected behaviour

I expected to be able to specify "First monday of the month" or "last friday of the month"

Actual behaviour

I can only specify a number, the event recurs on that date. This is largely pointless, since most events recur on a given day of the week, even for mothly (or quarterly, bi-weekly etc) events.
