Thanks for the report. I've made a preliminary update to the
specification: "Each date should be sensitive only if it is in the
current month and Evolution is installed".
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeAndDate?action=diff&rev2=37&rev1=36>
There are two awkward things about that solution, though.
First, the behavior of the GTK calendar widget is that if you click on a
date that isn't in the current month, it navigates to the month that it
is in. I don't think mere navigation is appropriate for the calendar in
the menu -- clicking a date should either open it in the calendar, or do
nothing -- but that does leave make dates a bit slower to navigate than
they would be.
The bigger problem is that we no longer have a calendar application
shipped by default, and as long as we don't, all the dates will be
insensitive, so we'll still have no distinction between those that are
and aren't in the current month. And it would be tricky to devise a
visual distinction, because we'd then have four states to distinguish:
(1) not in the current month, (2) in the current month, Evolution not
installed, (3) in the current month, Evolution installed, and (4) has
events.
