Remember you need to add (org-agenda-start-on-weekday nil) to the list
of properties for this agenda view.

I suspect the user naturally expects `org-agenda-start-day' to override
`org-agenda-start-on-weekday' -- and since `org-agenda-start-on-weekday'
is often set globally, maybe that's the correct expectation.  

still, being able to set (setq org-agenda-start-day "+10d") and have the
whole week displayed starting with `org-agenda-start-on-weekday' is
useful.

What do you think?
