I may not understand what you mean so this may not be a useful suggestion.
If I am understanding you, would a useful fix be to extend the recurrence to
a longer pattern, and then change the lead time so that there is a much
wider range before the task becomes "due"?

Let's say some recurring task is on your list like "check departmental mail
slot" which you ought to do every 1-3 days but if you only do it once a week
that's fine. Could you not have the recurrence set to a week with a 6 day
lead time to allow you a lot of flexibility, yet still have a date by which
you really should get it done or you're entering a danger zone of it not
really recurring frequently enough to be useful? Just a thought.
