SUMMARY

When a reminder is triggered, the dialog box that is provided to the user lists the task at hand and provides a way to suspend the reminder to retrigger in weeks, days, hours, minutes. 

I would find it highly useful if the user could enter via a calendar widget the date and time at which the reminder should be triggered once more.

For example: it's saturday at night and I have a reminder for an event that will occur on monday at 14:00. I would like to be able to quickly set the reminder to trigger again on monday at 08:00 (because I know I'll be on my computer at that time). Doing the calculations in days/hours/minutes is complicated (and I do not want to risk an error). Doing a simple calendar search/click and then tell an hour would be highly useful. 

I know of this because KAlarm (which I used to use) allows this very useful and flexible reminder time setting.

Thank you soooo much for developing KDE!

Sincerely,

Filippo

I'm sorry but we're moving in an entirely different direction with the reminder notification.
We haven't finalized all the details yet, but AFAIK the snooze duration will be even less configurable than it is now.

KAlarm is the solution to this use-case.
