 The precedence order for the configuration variable is report.X.dateformat then
 dateformat.report then dateformat.  While report.X.dateformat only formats the
 due date in reports, report.info.dateformat formats all the displayed dates of
-"task info" except for the date in each journal entry.
-dateformat.report formats the date both in reports

 are formatted according to dateformat.
