Description
When user tries to extend expired node, its expiration time is calculated starting from expiration date, but not from current date.
For example:
If my expiration period is 2 days and node expired 5 days ago, I have to extend it minimum 3 times to return it into not expired state.
It would be good if expiration time be calculated with offset from current date.

#2
Node expiration date is calculating from current date now.
#3
I agree, the new expiry date of an expired nodes should be calculated as now + $days. However I think that nodes that have not yet expired, should still be calculated as expire + $days, otherwise, the user 'loses' a couple of days when he extends before the expiry date. I intend to implement this behavior in the upcoming D6 version.
