Great.  I find that hint quite useful for me and have to keep reminding
myself.  The fancier org gets, the easier it is to forget this such
fundamental aspect which distinguishes it from most other tools.

Well, of course it's all text. But 5 times often is not enough,
cause there are start and end times.

Nevertheless that hint gave me the right direction:

In the agenda hit return on an entry.
C-c . opens the interface to alter the timestamp.
C-a C-k (or C-0 C-k) deletes the time part.
Done! Easy enough.

Thank you!

If there were a solution without leaving agenda view, that would be
another big improvement (for me).
