As I understand it, create a task
#B  _ This is a task {{Deadline: 2005.03.02}} (ProjectPage)

Then call M-x planner-deadline-update

And your task will look like this :
#B   _ This is a task {{Deadline: 2005.03.02 - *TODAY*}} (ProjectPage)

You need to call planner-deadline-update by hand, or perhaps someone 
knows how to hook it into M-x plan  ?

planner-deadline-change changes the deadline of the current task.
