I agree, as I pointed out before:

I was not arguing about the correctness of the policy, but just about
a possible workaround. ;-)

Thanks,

 Any hint?

AFAIK, such a thing is not implemented in the standard agenda -- and
that makes sense.

If you had to do something by a certain date (be it in the past), either
you still need to do it, either you don't anymore (because it's really
too late). In the latter case, you're supposed to mark the task as DONE
(or, better, some finished state such as CANCELLED, if you configure
your states so).

Best regards,
  Seb

 1) How can I configure it to show not the next n days, but the next n events
 like:

Don't know but I mus confess I am struggling with the same problem in
these days.

 2) There is this 75 d. ago Abstract DEADLINE. How am I supposed to act on
 deadlines in the past? The item has no TODO/DONE marker, just the DEADLINE.
 How to say that the action that relates to this deadline is done?

I resolved marked it as DONE.
I think makes sense: you need to tell org-mode that your deadline has been met.
Would be interesting to know if there is a way to tell org-mode to
load only /future/ deadline in the agenda...

Ciao,
Giulio
