I chose not to pass discounts through to Paypal itself, as there are too many 
ways to apply discounts and get the  numbers wrong at Paypal, especially with 
currency conversions. So instead the latest version will optionally display a 
message stating that discounts will be applied at the final stage, and then 
you would apply the same sort of discount code as you quote above on the final 
page after they return from Paypal.
