I still think it would make sense to have events in a calendar view--it
seems like the most obvious one ;-)

I am willing to be patient--not work on it right away but have a
calendar view of events be in future plans.  It can be more complicated
than simple reminders because events can span over time (across weeks
and months, etc) and they can be recurring.  The dtstart might not mean
the actual time an event starts--I think with recurring events it may be
the initial recurrence sometimes, etc.  so it may be the most complex
case to deal with.  I am not sure of all the possible complexities and
how the database represents them so I cannot say for sure (I have only
used events in the most simple case so far--meetings that span only
hours within a single day--and it is enough for me right now how to deal
with presenting the times to users in different time zones properly!).

Saying that, even if it is more work than one would think it's not like
proper calendaring including a calendar view of events has not been done
before--so it should be something to consider on a "wish list" for the
future to support such cases.

Thanks Cédric Krier for the good work!

Mark.
