Right, but then it will show up in tags-todo lists before I want it 
to.  An example is renewing my driver's license, for which I could use

    DEADLINE: <2011-10-12 Wed ++4y -2w>

but it would show up in tags-todo lists way before it would make sense 
to renew.  Although I suppose I could set org-agenda-ignore-deadlines 
to 'all and just rely on the daily/weekly agenda to show them to me ...
