When I create repeating tasks, several things happen that I don't expect. 

Especially it is not easily possible to set the current status of a single occurence.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. File->New->Task
2. Set Start Date 16.01.2008
3. Set Due Date 23.01.2008
4. Set Repeat weekly
Actual Results:  
1. Today Pane only shows first occurence
2. If I try to edit the task no "This or all Occurences" dialog comes up, always all occurences are edited
3. Task mode only shows first occurence if "Show All" selected and shows current occurence only if "Show Today" selected
4. Editing a single occurence in Task Mode only shows effect after reload, e.g. after changing to Mail Mode and back.


Expected Results:  
1. Today Pane should show all old uncompleted occurences and the current one
2. It should be possible to edit every single occurence
3. No idea what should be displayed if "Show All" is selected. "Show Today" should behave like Today Pane
4. View should be updated immediately.

Just forgot something:

Editing the first occurence is not possible at all.
