Named Date Ranges is a proposal for just that; ranges of dates that are
user-defined (named).

NDRs would be user-defined in taskrc (or included file) a would consist of 2
date values, including Named Dates (separate thing) and date-fragments (like
15:00).

for example;

date.range.day=due:7:30 until:18:00
date.range.morn=due:7:30 until:12:00
date.range.eve=due:18:00 until:22:00
date.range.springbreak=wait:feb21 due:mar10

defined date ranges are used as a suffix to a "regularly" defined date, and the
attribuutes defined in the range will override any attribute used to call it.
for example;

task add have coffee with Sue due:tomorrow.morn
task add go on shark tagging expedition due:2016.springbreak
