Exclude weekends from "Due in n-number of days'

Right now when you set a due date for a task or ticket it calculates the days until that item is due. However the number of days is misleading for those of us who do not work on the weekend. Therefore it would be nice if there was an administrative setting under the date/time section that allowed you to exclude weekends.

If someone enabled this feature maybe the weekends would be grayed out on the calendar and the due dates would reflect only the work week.

Thanks for listening.

Thank you for the feedback!

In this particular case, I think that current system is OK and that being too smart about this would end up in something that's misleading. This way you know that's something due in 10 days, so you can easily do the math.

Another option would be if it was saying both dates, with working days and without
