[Planner] Are fixed duration tasks really fixed?

[Bjorn Andersson <bjorn iki fi>]

The duration field seems to take into account working hours. I think it
would be more natural if duration was really the amount of calendar time
required to complete the task regardless of working hours. For example
if I mark the task to have a fixed duration of 6 days, then I expect it
to be 6 days long and not 8 if the weekend has non-working days. Or to
take the example from the manual: The gestation period for a human baby
is nine months. It cannot be delayed by adding non-working days or
hours.

I assume the current behavior of the duration field is intentional.
Could someone please explain rationale for it?

PS. Thanks for the great software, and keep up the good work!
