 * I have had posts marked to expire, and they don’t expire. Makes me look stupid
   when outdated information is left up on my website and customers see it 🙁 As
   it turns out, this may be caused by a feature I wouldn’t expect to use – the 
   expire to category option. If you have a category checked, (which was in my case,
   although I didn’t check it — perhaps a default?) the post doesn’t actually expire.
   I’m thinking a few interface and/or documentation changes would resolve it and
   get a higher rating from me.

 * The issue you describe is corrected in the 2.0.0 release that is currently in
   testing – it should solve little issues like this.
