SX scheduled or not?

Hi all,

I have been using GnuCash forever, or at least 6 or 7 years.  I have 
just noticed that I have a scheduled transaction set for December 3 
except use the following weekday if on weekend, which means December 5, 
2016.  If I open the edit SX window on this transaction using release 
2.6.11 in Debian Jessie, there is no colored dot on December 3 or 5 
2016, and, since the next occurrence is not shown in that view, it 
appears that it will not happen in 2016 or it was already entered.  I 
also see the same issue with release 2.6.12 (Mar 27 build) in Windows 7.

Curiously, from the Scheduled Transaction list window, that transaction 
is shown as scheduled to next occur on December 5, 2016 and it appears 
in the list under the colored dot on December 5 20156 in the calendar 
portion of that page.  I suppose that means that it will happen soon but 
I have it scheduled to be entered 70 days early with a reminder 84 days 
before that.  The reminder has not appeared today, but it would if I 
increase the reminder lead time to 85 days, so I guess that it is still 
scheduled for December 5, 2016, even though I cannot find that 
information in any of the 3 Edit Scheduled Transaction dialog windows.

Shouldn't it have a colored dot on the calendar in the Edit Scheduled 
Transaction dialog (and perhaps be listed in a Next Scheduled box 
somewhere in the dialog)?

I have not upgraded to release 2.6.13 yet on any of my systems, so if 
this is fixed, it is not mentioned in the release announcement.
