I see, additionally something like

  Y: beginning of year

would be useful, too. Or even:

  m: beginning of month
  M: end of month
  y: beginning of year
  Y: end of year

One problem I've come across with the acceleration is i18n, though. I've
just tried to change a date in GnuCash and failed, since the German
locale shows dates as YYYY-MM-DD and I wasn't able to enter the dash.
This needs looking into in the new widget.
