Recurring Holidays in Schedules

Current state when building a schedule you have to put in holidays as individual calendar days.  You can schedule holidays up to two years in advance. This means, we need to remember to enter each schedule on a regular occurence (at least every 1-2 years) and insert holidays for the next year.

This may be fine on a small scale, but on an enterprise scale with many schedule it can be tedious.  

Ideal state would be that on the Holidays page you can select from a list of recurring holidays and let the system keep the schedule up to date.

For example:

Current state - for Christmas (December 25) we need to open each individual schedule across all our instances and enter the next calendar date for the next two years, such as 12/25/24 and 12/25/25.  Then, after 12/25/24 we need to remember to revisit this schedule and enter the next year.

Ideal / blue-sky state - on the Holiday page it lists most common holidays as checkboxes.  I select Christmas once, as a recurring holiday, and therefore do not ever need to return to add 12/25 again.

I would still want the ability to do ad-hoc dates, for example if an entire team is out of office on a non recognized holiday.
