But once you're in "next" year, what if you want to modify the dates. Does that still count as the joker from what will be the previous year, or will BA insist you use another joker in the new, current year.

If a joker is about to expire, and I know I want to travel to a destination, but don't know the exact dates, can I use a joker for the rough dates, and then tweak them closer to the time under that same joker.
Yes you can.

We always book our Jokers around June 6 each year, (has to be ticketed in time) and then amend away as you see fit.

Only limitation is the ticket validity.
