What is the proposed idea/solution?

Create an Overarching Timeline and Date settings functionality that lives at the BASE level versus the view.

In these settings, I can configure a timeline that will appear at the top of every timelines / Gantt view that will display a single line of important date information.  I can also define dates to be "Unschedulable".

How does is solve the user problems?

There is currently no clean way to define a single line "important Dates" or milestones for your project, and you have to hackily set this up dependent of what you are showing in your timeline / Gantt view. Additionally, you must also define your date settings PER view, versus setting this up 1 time for your base.  If your company has 100 Holidays, time off, etc. per year, you have to input these 100 dates in EVERY view where you dont want them to be seen.  In any timeline or Gantt view "Use Global Timeline Settings" is set on by Default

How was this validated?

In timeline and Gantt, a Top level Timeline row will exist and I can input dates to be displayed as either a Single Date, or a Span of time.  I can define the colors for each without needing to setup the conditions.

Who is the target audience?

Project Managers and Producers
