Actually, I'm thinking that a lot of the discount code needs to be rewritten
and made more flexible.  Having end dates be required is just the least of
it.

For some of my clients, I've implemented things like:
- Single-use or x-number of uses discounts
- Discounts which can only be used by a client or a group of clients
(user.group)
- Discounts which can only be used by existing clients

But these all required forking the built-in discount code.  I'd much rather
see it modularized via signals in a better-thought-out way.  At least, I
hope it could all be done with signals.  Some magical day when I have time,
I'll do that, if some other kind soul doesn't beat me to it.
