I consider DEADLINE, in our context, to mean "when my finished work will
be needed", and therefore "when to start bothering me about getting it
done". I think that was the intention when this system was set up; in
other words, I think DEADLINE is treated as simply a personal warning
system, and it doesn't have the power to modify the agenda like TODO vs
DONE.
