Here's an example of how something like this could be done:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defmacro my-agenda (days)
  `(list 'agenda ""
	 (list (list 'org-deadline-warning-days ,days))))

(setq my-next-actions
      '("n" "All next actions" todo "TODO|NOW|NEXT"
	((org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled 'future)
	 (org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines 'far)
	 (org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks t))))

(setq my-projects
      '("q" "Projects" todo "PROJECT"
	((org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines t)
	 (org-agenda-prefix-format " %i %-12:c%l"))))

(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
      `(,my-next-actions
	,my-projects
	("k" "Combined"
	 (,(cddr my-next-actions)
	  ,(cddr my-projects)))
	("d" "Short deadlines"
	 (,(my-agenda 1)))
	("D" "Long deadlines"
	 (,(my-agenda 21)))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
