Hi Tobias, May I suggest that you either allow the user to set a (past/future) reminders horizon (with a warning when the value is high enough to trigger an unresponsive script message) or set a maximum of 7 days lead-time (which I personally prefer)?
I think you are being generous with 14 days in the past and 7 into the future. To me, ideally, in a GTD environment, once the reminder has fallen due, it should be placed in a tiddler containing tasks done as appropriate or reset if necessary. BTW I really like the look and idea of tbGTD.
