Body: <p>I frequently have a problem when using CiviEvent that registration is not live because of problems with the end (or start and end) dates. Often this is caused by:</p>
  <ol>
  <li>An event I copy and edit.</li>
  <li>Repeating events
  In both of these cases, if the end of registration could be RELATIVE to the event start time, this problem would not exist. These fixed (only) times cause me problems repeatedly!
  Can this be fixed at my end? Can the code for this be change in future versions?</li>

  I frequently have a problem when using CiviEvent that registration is not live because of problems with the end (or start and end) dates. Often this is caused by:
  
  1. An event I copy and edit.
  2. Repeating events
     In both of these cases, if the end of registration could be RELATIVE to the event start time, this problem would not exist. These fixed (only) times cause me problems repeatedly!
     Can this be fixed at my end? Can the code for this be change in future versions?
