Hi Julien,

I tried your patch out tonight and I'm confused about org-agenda-ndays.
This is stated as obsolete (since 24.1 ? what's that?) but the default
for org-agenda-span doesn't seem to be set based on the existing value
of org-agenda-ndays.  Is that on purpose?

I'm fine with customizing org-agenda-span as long as it's documented
that this needs to be done for the next version of org-mode that
includes your patch.

I also noticed the display on the modeline says 'Day', 'Week', 'Month',
or 'Year' when displaying the agenda with 'd', 'w', 'v m', and 'v y'
which is great.  However this data is lost and replaced with '1 days' if
moving forwards or backwards in the agenda with 'f' and 'b' or jumping
to a date with 'j'.

Otherwise I think this looks good to me.

Regards,
Bernt
