I'd would love this feature. Quite a number of my tasks are recurring over a period of more than 3 or 4 days. So really under DWM, I should create them as new tasks at +28. But, I've been lazy and used the convenient re-add feature that continues/rephrased existing tasks at +7.

An alternative to above "modal" feature, would be to have in the Add window, under "more" button, an option to copy current tasks details.

Another alternative is to have two distinct re-add options in the Done window. First, existing re-add task option. Second, re-add as new task option.

I also plan to improve the tickler function, so you can re-tickle tasks after doing them and have recurring ticklers. That will probably help with this problem, too.
