@Taldin, we wouldn't use the history date for that. We'd add a setting to the Daily to flag it as using this new kind of repeat function, and then we'd change cron so that when cron processed a completed Daily that had that flag, it would set the Start Date to the appropriate number of days in the future.

There's already a feature request for this behaviour, with quite a few people asking for it, so it's something that we're likely to do in future. It can't be done at the moment though because we're making some site-wide changes to refactor the code and certain other kinds of changes are on hold until that's completed.
