Congrats on a new Relative Date Slicer!
Let's make it even more Dynamic.
Instead of limiting the time-steps (years, months, etc.), please give the possibility to write free DAX EXPRESSIONS for the default memeber that the report would be filtered upon opening.
So that I could write even conditional expressions, such as "If today is Saturday, then slice on the last week else show current week".
You can also apply the free DAX-powered default members choosing for all kinds of slicers, not just Dates.
Thanks and good luck!

I would be in favor of this being baked into the model itself, and not just a slicer.
