I often find myself wanting to change both the start and due dates to the SAME date. But these two fields are completely independent, and it's a hassle (and prone to error) to have to change both individually to the same date.

Would be nice to be able to change one of them, then right click the other and select "same as due date" / "same as start date".

This would be great. I often have to change the due date and complete date to be the same as this works better for filing in daynotez

As a further refinement, it would be nice to be able to set the due date, and then set the start date relative to that... right click on start date, then click "set relative to due date", then some options appear like "same as due date", "X days before due date", "Y weeks before due date"... an easy way to set a lead time relative to the ultimate due date, without having to think about it, and perhaps ending up setting the wrong start date (e.g. start in 2009... oops... only discover it's the wrong year when your filter shows up this task in 2009, due for completion back in 2008).

Plus similar (but less important) options for setting due date relative to start date.

Yes - Would also be great if we could filter for start date = due date, to capture items that are truly date specific, ie "due-ON-due date" -- not before or after. I tried to set up a filter for this and was not able to, maybe someone else has figured it out.
