I think that you misunderstand the purpose of 'repeated-after-deadline
value. Let me provide an example:

    'repeated-after-deadline allows this task
    
    * Do me every day before March, 16th (included)
      SCHEDULED: <2013-03-12 mar. +1d> DEADLINE: <2013-03-16 sam.>
    
    to step being displayed after March, 16th.
