Quoted from DCFAN:

The diodes for the LE are on the Driver board and that is why it does not need the diode at the coil.

That may be the case, but it is definitely odd. The flyback current from the coil would have to travel all the way back to the BB with potential for possible damage along the way. If it were me, I'd keep the diode on there.
