True. The problem is the other way round. A new or changed VEVENT from
the phone will only have a DESCRIPTION, which doesn't work very well for
evo. Theoretically, the place to fix this in would be evo: if you get a
VEVENT with a DESCRIPTION, but no SUMMARY, use the DESCRIPTION.
However, we are already doing a lot of massaging of the data, so it's
not too inappropriate to add this to multisync. I would assume that
adding a SUMMARY should be pretty harmless if no such is found. And
since evo uses VCALENDAR as it's native format, they might not agree to
a lot of heuristics in handling it.
