I simply cannot believe that Chandler doesn't have a whole-month view. 
Most of its competitors do, and it really impedes real-world 
functionality for that not to be incorporated. A calendar is about 
planning, and if we confine ourselves to thinking no more than a week 
ahead, we're not going to be effective in that task.

Is this feature planned for future releases?
