Even better would be to have milestones have a date attached, and be able to get whines in durations before or after milestones, as well as periodically. Also, it's be nice if "remind" bugs had a date for reminders, i.e. a quick single bug whine. Reproducible: Always

You control the custom Whining interval yourself, on editwhines.cgi. (Provided that you're using 2.20 or later.)

Yes, whine.pl can do daily, weekly and monthly, plus some several-times-a-day-stuff. Will this do it for you? The more complicated relative-to-milestones thing is can be done manually only (by hand-crafting a saved search for each milestone you want to have whining for). See bug 62370, too. Bug reminders are bug 65402.
No, for resolved:Later to be of use, I need longer than a month. Some projects need milestones based things, others have no milestones, and just need periodic reminders. The most useful reminder periods are a week, a month, and a quarter.

Okay, thank you. That's much clearer. You can already do a week and a month. You can do milestone-based things by setting up different Whines. So what you want is intervals longer than a month, which Bugzilla doesn't already do.
