How about:

It would be nice to not require both endpoints to be specified in date
searches.  For example it would be nice to be able to say things like
"date:2009-01-1", to specify a search over a particular day, or
"since:'1 month' to specify an open-ended range, and have the other
endpoint be implicit.  To do any of this we're probably going to need to
break down an write our own parser for the query string rather than
using Xapian's QueryParser class.
