So, I think the things we should limit are multi-day all-day events, not 1-day all-day events. Does that seem more reasonable? How many multi-day events do you have at a time? > As an example, look at iCal. It has untimed events in lozenges above > any timed events in plain text.

My version of iCal strictly limits the number of all-day events displayed to 2 in month-view. What version of iCal are you using?
