A suitably wide setting for the match-window should allow you to match
such transactions, shouldn't it?  That is more or less what happens now, with 
the setting being ignored.  Whichever date is retained after matching could be
adjusted as required.  I'm not sure about this, but you could try
experimenting.
The retained date possibly depends on which transaction is selected first and
which second.  I think that may be what happens now.
