That doesn't work. In fact, it's just the *opposite* of what I specified.
Such a custom view in doesn't show items that do NOT have a due date and
DOES show future items.

Even I changed it to "less than 1" days to remove future items and show
today's items, it still doesn't show non-due-date items which is the point
of the question. Your approach wouldn't do what I need unless I manually set
"completed" to true all non-due-date items even when they are not complete
-- that would confuse me and I'm sure I would misstag them sometimes and
tasks would fall between the cracks quickly.

Yes, I could set all my non-due-date ones to "today", but without a
carry-forward feature in the app, that would be problematic. And, apparently
I cannot script this. If it would fix everything, great, but I suspect that
the purposely wrong date would confuse me and maybe have other side effects
I'm not thinking of yet. And again, if I forgot to add this tag, tasks would
fall between the cracks quickly.

Any other suggestions?
