Option to add a DUE date when creating a Discussion

Why is there no option for adding a DUE date (not END date) when creating a Discussion? I would like to see the options for adding dates to be the same as they are when creating a quiz (dates for DUE, START, and END) so that the student still has the ability to submit past the due date. At this time we only have the option of a START and END date for a Discussion and it is not very student or faculty friendly.
