If you think it would be useful to have built-in support in OmniFocus for relative dates, use Help->Send Feedback to get your vote to the developers.

I realize it's a little less flexible than what you're asking for, but would it be possible to make all your task due dates relative to the overall project due date? My project template has a due date, and some of the tasks within it have due dates falling a day or two earlier. When I run the script, I end up with a new project due on the date I fed the script, and due dates for the subordinate tasks that are the appropriate number of days earlier.
