Hmm, that may be -- every entry that has a date is a TODO for me.  I
would think that a non-todo entry (repeating or not) should only occur
on the day(s) where it's scheduled, since there is no way to mark it
"done" and get it off of today's agenda.

However, if we do this, we lose information on *how* overdue a
particular item is.  I tend to keep things on the agenda and let the
large numbers shame me into getting things done...
