Hi Karen,
I think you are completely right that the export implementation of
deadlines does now
not do the right thing for TODO entries. I think that for entries
that are not a TODO,
exporting a deadline as an event makes actually sense. Not so for
TODO entries.
I have just pushed a new version to the GIT repo that does the
following. Thanks for
sharing your thoughts.

Changes in iCalendar export
---------------------------
Deadline and scheduling time stamps are now treated
differently in iCalendar export. The default behavior is now
the following:
- a DEADLINE that appears in an entry that is a TODO item is
used as the item's DUE date. Therefore, such a deadline
will no longer show up in the calendar.
- a DEADLINE that appears in an item that is *not* a TODO
item is exported as an EVENT and will show up in the
calendar.
- a SCHEDULED timestamp in a TODO item will be used as the
items DTSTART. Therefore, such a timestamp will not show
up in the calendar.
- a SCHEDULED timestamp in an item that is not a TODO has no
effect on iCalendar export at all. It will be ignored.
Of course this would not be Emacs if you could not configure
exactly what you want. Take a look at the variables
`org-icalendar-use-deadlines' and
`org-icalendar-use-deadlines' if you want to go back to the
old behavior or even do something completely different.
