This is already possible, by binding the variable
org-agenda-show-all-dates to nil around the call to make
the agenda (for examples using the options section of a
custom agenda command). So the only missing piece
for
your preferred solution is the determination of starting
dates and end date in a useful and automatic
way. Maybe
I can take a look some time this week and see ifthere is a simple way to
replace the time line with
something better.
Maybe I spoke too soon. I tried the org-agenda-show-all-dates == nil.
Although it worked, without the warning about the month-long gaps it was a
bit hard to navigate. It was easier to navigate a full year of complete
agenda weeks. Its a shame I'm the only one to have noticed how handy the
(L) Timeline feature is ;-) Its output was (is) nice and clean. It was the
first thing I tried when I was looking to set up an appointment several
months down the road. I suppose I could do my own "recurrences" by hand.
