Future budgets ignored in time-limited forecasting?

I'm trying to capture budgets that change over time. It may start with simply a ~ Monthly transaction but, over time, I want to "retire" old budget amounts as well as document future budget changes, e.g. stepped payment plans on rent, student loans, etc. I had something like this in test.ledger
