Not that I know of, but maybe a generalization of the feature that
Konrad was looking for might be what's needed: give properties to agenda
entry generators, so e.g. they cause the agenda entry to be only
displayed today, or to be of a given duration (0 in this case, 10 mins
in some other case, 1 hour by default), etc.  The difficult thing is to
make it general enough, concise enough and undestandable enough for mere
mortals to have a chance.
