* lisp/org-agenda.el: (org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines): New option.
(org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled): New option.
(org-agenda-todo-ignore-timestamp): New option.
(org-agenda-check-for-timestamp-as-reason-to-ignore-todo-item): Allow user
to specify custom distance to ignore (future or past).
(org-agenda-todo-custom-ignore-p): New function.
This patch gives users greater control over which past or future items
they would like to ignore in the global todo list. By setting
org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled to 7, for instance, a user can ignore
all items scheduled 7 or more days in the future. Similarly, by
setting org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled to -1, a user can ignore all
items that are truly in the past (unlike the 'past setting, which
ignores items scheduled today). Thanks to Paul Sexton for the idea for
this new functionality.

The idea behind this is that by setting a timestamp, you
have already \"taken care\" of this item.
+This variable can also have an integer as a value. If positive (N),
+todos with a timestamp N or more days in the future will be ignored. If
+negative (-N), todos with a timestamp N or more days in the past will be
+ignored. If 0, todos with a timestamp either today or in the future will
+be ignored. For example, a value of -1 will exclude todos with a
+timestamp in the past (yesterday or earlier), while a value of 7 will
+exclude todos with a timestamp a week or more in the future.
