Add more date specific tokens

Add more date specific tokens

I would like to send on my emails something that says "conversation week of June 29" for example, which I cannot at the moment. Why? Because the only date related token will say "June, 29th 2014" if I am right.

But the thing is that it doesn't sound very natural in the conversation adding the year also. If you could add a functionality that lets you use the following tokens:
{current month}
{current day}

That could be done by putting "conversation week of {current month} {current day}.

The date token cannot be formatted to display the way you describe above.  The only option today is to use a text token to convey the date information in the proper format.  The Current Month and Day tokens are interesting ideas, but could you tell me the use case?

If i wanted to show in the subject the text "conversation week of June 29" instead of using the token, the email will look more natural and not so much like an automated email. That´s the reason I´d like to use this, but it can also be used for many other cases, for example:
- any kind of email you send just once a month, and instead of writing down the month, which you can forget to do and it will be sent with the previous date and look absurd, using a token like that could
(1) simplify the task
(2) reduce the number of mistakes due to forgetting to update a date manually
