Enable full planning capability
This is to some extent an amalgamation of some features that have been requested and some new ones, but the intention behind this suggestion is that all of them would be needed to allow MLO users to use the software to plan complex projects which have a deadline.
- A 'Schedule On' date in addition to start (when one could start a task) and due (when one must finish a task), schedule on would be when one intends to do a task (some time between the two).
- The start date for dependent tasks should be automatically a set time after their dependencies 'Schedule on' date so that If one were to move the first task's Schedule on date, its dependency cannot start before it.
- Finally a total of max time required for each time period (day,week,month) so that one can check one has not scheduled too much to one time period.
None of this would require any re-structuring of the way MLO looks, but would make it a very powerful tool for planning.
