Dashboard/Entry time dropdown: keep end time fixed when changing duration

Currently, on Dashboard, the (very sleek) entry start & end time dropdown works as follows:

changing changes stays put
duration end start
start duration end
end duration start

Which basically makes the duration cell useless, because if one sets it, one probably overwrites it immediately with either of the two other values

But, since one enters always a task after it has been finished, it would be more logical that end time (i.e. now) stayed put when changing duration (note 1):

changing changes stays put note
duration start end 1
start end duration 2
end duration start 3

Note 2: progression is now left to right & allows for tasks that ran for some time and finished before now to be entered. Note 3: this has to stay to maintain the ability to set both start & end time, calculating duration.

This also applies to Time entries/Add time entry popup.

#18 makes sense to be implemented as well regarding this
