With org-journal.el, your journal entry for the day are indicated in the calendar.el.
Can you tell me more about this, as I am unfamiliar with the workflow. Does it apply a highlight to the given day? Does it do more with that, such as somehow preview the entry for that day? If there are many entries, does it show a buffer with their titles or something?
I was thinking could we have denote notes show up in calendar as well? So if there is an entry for the day, there could be an indicator in the calendar that an entry was entered that day and perhaps, provide an option to list all entries for that day.
I need to think about this based on your feedback. We will need to work with calendar.el, which is not something we are doing right now. Perhaps this is best done as a standalone package, instead of an extension to the existing files we have here. Though we will see.

This is the code from org-journal that does it. It just adds the file to org-agenda-files. Considering that the use case is based on org-journal. restricting this to org-mode & org-agenda seems OK vs. a broader calendar.el / diary approach.
I believe this can be done right now via user-specific emacs lisp. It would certainly be cool to have it out-of-the-box from Denote, especially if it's linked to a specific silo or silos.
