Bug Description
I've two alarms on my phone: one for all week days (but Sunday) and one for Sunday.
Some evening I choose to don't wake up the next morning, so I go to clock app and deactivate the weekly alarm: the problem is, the next evening I've to remember to reactivate it.
A very useful feature would be to have a button (a swipe? A long press?) to skip next occurence of the alarm: when I click on it removes next occurence of the alarm, but doesn't deactivate the alarm, so I don't have to remember to reactivate it.

hmm this feature request seems very specific to me and as such requires a lot of effort due to,
1. Using a unusual input to activate such a feature although I guess we can brainstorm further to fix this. At the moment we already use the long press to allow for multi-selection feature which is standard through the platform. The swipe is used for delete at the moment.
2. The alarms backend that we use qtorganizer5-eds would also not support such a functionality since removing one day of the recurrence for instance wednesday would result in all the wednesdays being removed.
Either way I will keep this bug open, there are still lot of high priority alarms to be fixed first. So I wouldn't expect a quick fix for this.
