In the graph customization settings you can adjust the x-min to only show data past a certain date. What I would instead like to see is an option to show the last x days of data.

On many beeminders the graph becomes to zoomed out to be usefull after a goal has been around for a year plus.

Datapoint: this is the default behaviour of my unpublished beeminder-alike tool, and it works well for me. It shows 2 weeks into the future and 2 weeks back into the past.
