Subject: EPD opcodes and mate scores

In the PGN/EPD specification I couldn't find any human friendly way to indicate
the distance to the mate if it is the side the move which will be mated. I know
it would be possible with the "ce" opcode but this is a little bit more
difficult to read. Is there any way to indicate it in an easy way like the "dm"
it does if the side to move mates the opponent? Should I use e.g. "dm -3" or is
this a bad idea? Any suggestions?
