RE: [Planner] Are fixed duration tasks really fixed?

["Gary E Moffatt" <gmoffatt gt rr com>]

I assume the current behavior of the duration field is intentional.
Could someone please explain rationale for it? Dept of superobvious:
Please, if you can! The graphical representation must absolutely be drawn
from the schedule dates, not recalculated in any way. It is desirable to be
able to select which dates (early, late, leveled, free, etc.) are used but,
as with any other graph, you want gant to show the data. If the table is
correct the gant will be as well.
