I've thought about this some too, and there are definitely times when 
that would be convenient, but I think that overall I prefer to have the 
default be the system date. I'm not looking at the day page for most of 
the tasks I create when I create them. I guess there is also the option 
to have a separate command for planner-create-task-this-page or 
something like that. Does planner-create-task-from-buffer take 
arguments? If so, maybe you can make your own binding to create a task 
on the current page.

This I would like, because it fits with the diary style of adding 
entries. I might not use it on my desktop much---it is so slow that 
browsing plan pages via the calendar is not an option---but I would use 
it at work and on my laptop.
