Sorry for the late reply - this thread was filtered incorrectly.

The primary use I have for it is essentially what Nathan said - it controls
display or recurring items to be the same as habits, with the exception of
not displaying the habit graph.

I also use it when scheduling items that can't be started before a certain
date.  For example, I recently got a note that my tax return was being
inverstigated and that I should contact the IRS in 30 days.  Now, I schedule
this item for 30 days from now, but in 23 days it starts showing up in my
weekly agenda, even though there's nothing that can be done about it at that
point.  I'd much rather have it only display when it can actually be worked
on.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Thanks,
Nathaniel Flath
