modification of due date for repeating task
jmm says:
On Monday, I created a task with a due date of friday and a repeat of 1 week. ("every 1 week" is the string listed)
On Thursday, I noticed it had both the "tomorrow" version of the task and the "8 days from now" version. This was fine with me, even though I'd personally rather just have the "next one" visible in my list.
On Friday, I decided to change this repeating task to Sundays instead. I moved the one for "today" from Friday to Sunday, but the one for "a week from now" didn't automatically bump 2 days - it stayed on Friday.
This seems like a simple enough bug - modification of the due date of a repeating task needs to modify the other "copies" of the task.
Note that if only the "next one" copy of the task was displayed, this wouldn't have been an issue, but I'll understand if the fix is something different :)

jmm, thanks for your feedback on this -- we'll check this out (I think that any future tasks in that repeating series will have the changed day, but I'm not sure about any current ones).
