I haven't tested this, but looking at the tag definition, you might be
able to trick [subtotal] into giving you the full subtotal by passing it
a bogus discount space. It's worth a shot given its simplicity.

Pick a name that you know isn't used for a valid discount space (likely
any will do since you're probably only using the default one) and pass
it to [subtotal]. E.g.:

[subtotal discount_space="Tricky,tricky"]

If you try it, post the result and let me know.

Thanks,
Mark
