If you search for org-agenda-exact-dates, you will find that I'm not the 
only one who has used this variable, and not the only one who has 
noticed its absence in version 9.

The two variables you mention above fix almost everything for me - but 
is there a "org-deadline-past-days" variable? Something that I could set 
so that past due deadlines not be mentioned? Or may I suggest that 
"org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines" have a value like "past", but one 
that ignores deadlines that are in the past, but include those for 
today. Or does that variable only work with TODO lists, and not with 
agendas?

What I am trying to do is an agenda view in which only the tasks 
specifically for the given day - whether scheduled or deadline - appears.

Thanks,

Andrius
