I think that using an expiration timestamp instead of a liftime is
fine, but we should still have a starting time since that information
is used to make sure the ticket is valid. I also like the idea of
allowing postdated tickets as suggested, and whatever approach is
considered, this should be taken into account. If we are going to
make such changes now, then now is also the time to reconsider
the form of the timestamp. We should be using some standard time
format other than that found in Unix.
