Wow quite the discussion hear... Hopefully this hasn't died as it's an important issue.

I'm a newbie, please help me grasp current functionality. As I understand it the current functionality is:
1. User purchases a "recurring" product that grants a role permission, ie monthly billing and monthly role renewal.
2. Each month when the recurring charge is process, role is renewed for an additional month.

The issue is that the first month really lists two months? And there is no way to "upgrade" to a higher subscription level unless manually cancelling the first?

Thanks for helping me dig into this.
