Maybe I spoke too soon. I tried the org-agenda-show-all-dates == nil.  
Although it worked, without the warning about the month-long gaps it was a  
bit hard to navigate. It was easier to navigate a full year of complete  
agenda weeks. Its a shame I'm the only one to have noticed how handy the  
(L) Timeline feature is ;-) Its output was (is) nice and clean. It was the  
first thing I tried when I was looking to set up an appointment several  
months down the road. I suppose I could do my own "recurrences" by hand.
