Public bug reported:
I suggest that the calendar / histogram widget be modified to support
scrubbing, where the user could click and then drag with the mouse to
browse through dates very quickly. Here are some reasons to justify the
idea:
* The calendar / histogram widget currently reacts when the user presses with
the mouse, and most widgets like this seem to support some kind of click + drag
interaction. (For example, menus).
* The way the widget interacts with the rest of the interface is reminiscent
of a scroll bar, which behaves in the way I suggest.
* Repeatedly clicking is not ergonomic, but there is presently no other way to
scan through events in detail. This would provide one way of doing so.
