First Check

• I used the GitHub search to find a similar requests and didn't find it.
• Checked the tasks tagged issues and verified my feature is not covered

Please provide a concise description of the problem that would be addressed by this feature.

Whenever one enters the meal planner, the date range is reset.

Please provide a concise description of the feature that would resolve your issue.

Implement planner settings where you can set

• default number of days to show in planner
• first day to show:
  -- day of week
  --- perhaps with added ability to select current week or current week +/- N, where N is a number.
  -- day of month
  -- today - implying the the calender shows a "sliding window" of days
  --- possibly with added ability to select today +/- N, where N is a the number of days to show

Please consider and list out some caveats or tradeoffs made in your design decision

Advanced options like +/- N weeks or days may be confusing, but with proper defaults and tool tips, it can probably be mitigated.

Found a partial overlap here: #1780

Solving this feature request would solve that as well.

My wife and I would also be very interested in this as a feature, or even just a guide as to how to make a permanent change in the code (I'm using Docker). Seeing the previous few days/week would be great for making sure the meals being planned have better variety in addition to know when leftovers may no longer be good to eat.

I’m interested in this as a feature. I would like to be able to set the week, for example, from Thursday to Wednesday. Thank you very much.
