Why? It only takes simple arithmetic to figure out the duration when you
know the start & end times of the event. ...
Cory C. Albrecht

Having built timetabling software for more than 10 years, I find my
customers
appreciate having a duration field in their events. There is a big
difference between
- lapse duration that you can calculate from start/end times, and
- paid duration that you actually get paid for (and what is really
requested here)
The effective duration may or may not include many things: meals,
preparation time
(like putting on/taking off protection suits, briefing, etc.) transport
time to/from work site.
It all depends on your local work convention.

I strongly second Avaneesh's suggestion, and even more if it is
possible !
I.e. user-defined fields for integers, reals and variable-length
strings.
As it is, GCal is already doing a superb job. Best greetings to every
member of the team!
