Thank you! That is interesting. Is my understanding correct, that you 
meant something like the following.

* TODO Task, that can be completed tomorrow or later
  START: [2011-12-19 Mon]

This task will not show up on the daily agenda tomorrow since the 
timestamp is inactive. But it is still shown its the agenda task list 
today. What I have to do now is to write a custom agenda search that 
shows me all tasks that do not have a start timestamp or a start 
timestamp in the past or today. This search would hide tasks with a 
start date in the future.

Is this what you mean?

Regards,
Karl
