">" _is_ the built-in key! If you don't like where it's located, you can
rebind `org-agenda-date-prompt' to a different key in the agenda map. As
you noted, almost the entire keyboard is already bound in agenda mode,
but if you hit "C-h m" and look at the bindings, you'll see a couple of
capital letters are free. Then in an eval-after-load block (or
org-agenda-mode-hook) you could call:
(define-key org-agenda-mode-map (kbd "K") org-agenda-date-prompt)
Or whatever you pick. That ought to work...
