The budgeting support in the development branch might help you get the
data you're after, but this is, I think, something slightly different.
One possiblity is to force the creation of scheduled transactions out X
(60, 90, whatever) days in the future. Once done, the register for the
account(s) will show the correct future balance with the transactions
applied ... but only because the transactions will *actually* be entered
onto the books. This is less-than-flexible if you want to try out
different payment schedules or in fact want to make any change to the
scheduled transactions.
A report that looked at the scheduled transactions and computed their
application into the future would be nifty. All the pieces are there as
the Since-Last-Run dialog does substantially the same thing; this would
just want to do so without actually changing the transaction state, and
have some reasonable behavior around SXes that contain variables.
