I shouldn't chirp in without really understanding what's going on, but I think 
that if I wanted a historical record of my diary/to-do list, I'd want those 
old pages to indicate either what I did work on (even if not completed) 
(possibly even with a number of hours for billing purposes) or what I 
intended to work on.

Does the planner support that kind of thing? (perhaps that's the default?)

Sorry for the noise,
