I can see your point. Simple timestamp matching by regexp disregarding
timestamp objects might be useful. However, I do not think that matching
should be via timestamps in such a case. Rather it should be even more
lax - agenda may match anything date-looking (with or without brackets).
A specialized regex agenda matcher with regex constructed using current
agenda date.

Maybe we can introduce a new agenda view? Or maybe a special agenda
mode, similar to org-agenda-include-inactive-timestamps?

Best,
