No, we don't support this, mainly because its not part of ISO8601.
I can see its use though. The problem is that it is not necessarily
clear. What if you want two days before 'today' instead of 'now'. Is
that a different constant? Or two days before the nearest hour?
Sadly, there are many concepts that ISO8601 doesn't support.
