Postponing/snoozing tasks

Hi there

I'm relatively new to the RTM world but so far I've been fairly happy with the application. So I apologize if this question has been asked before.

One thing that is definitely lacking is the ability to postpone or snooze a task and/or its reminder. I have push notifications enabled so my iPhone moos at me when something is due -- LOVE that btw. My tasks remind me twice a day: once at 9am-ish (and that's for every task), and then again at the time its due. I would love the ability to postpone things when the push notification comes up. As it stands right now, if I can't complete my task at the time the reminder pops up I'm never reminded again.

Is there a setting in the app that I'm missing that could handle this for me? Or is it a hole in the app? I've seen this function on other apps (NotifyMe 2, for example) and it's almost worth switching for ... I have tasks that have never been completed because I couldn't postpone them and be reminded again.

You can postpone within the app, either by tapping Edit and checking a task or tasks:

or by editing a single task (and pressing Postpone Task at the bottom):

It's only possible to do this within the app; it's not possible to provide a Postpone button in the alert from a push notification reminder.

Hope this helps!

I think it would be nice to be able to snooze/postpone x minutes/hours instead of a full day. Full day is ok but sometimes a reminder pops up but I cannot do that task right way because I'm doing something else. It's too time consuming to edit that one task and alter it's due date. So I ignore the task and hope to do it later. But sometimes I forget it because it does not remind me any more :(. It could also be done if we could set it to keep reminding use periodically until it done.
