21429	Enable relative timestamp search	smootheFiets	team	"JOSM search supports absolute timestamp searches like ""timestamp:/2019"" meaning ""timestamp of last edit before 2019-01-01.0.""  I'd like to perform ''relative'' searches, i.e., to find objects older/younger than some number of days/years/microseconds.  I don't seem to see that capability, but maybe I'm overlooking something?  It would be useful for quality-assurance type of work, and it would be easy to implement (I guess).

My immediate use case is the JOSM validator.  I've set up a validator.mapcss file that throws warnings at objects that may be outdated on OSM (https://github.com/smootheFiets/validator/blob/master/outdated.validator.mapcss).  The timestamp search is out-sourced to JOSM like ""[JOSM_search(""timestamp:/2019"")]"".  Hard-wiring the date into the code strikes me as undesirable; it means I have to update the file every year or so for trivial reasons.  Surely there must be a more elegant way?

Obviously, a solution that works in straight mapcss instead of JOSM search is fine by me.

PS: I've asked the same question in the OSM forum, receiving no answers.  I take this to mean that, currently, this is not a capability that JOSM has.  Please correct me if I'm wrong!
