In the meantime, here's a Calendar snippet I pulled together in basic
ZAP you could use, that works great--using a rather creative approach
to the problem...  ZAP's listing capabilities.

The first part allows you to enter a page name (a date, or anything
actually) and it takes you to that page in the Calendar.

The second part creates a new todo item.  Each is a separate page (I
know, I know), in the same Calendar group, but specially named to make
pagelisting fast.

The third form (partly generated by a pagelist) allows you to
check/uncheck any of the todo items and then immediately redisplays
them as stricken out or not stricken out.  On my home machine, it's
very fast and almost fun.

To use, you just enable zap (no extra modules needed), cut and paste
this snippet below into Calendar.GroupHeader (or Calendar.GroupFooter)
and add the calendar template to Site.LocalTemplates.  You can see it
in action by going to:

http://www.fast.st/zap/pmwiki.php?n=Calendar.2007-01-31 or anyother
page in the group.  You gotta at least take a peek Kathryn.  It's
really pretty neat, just for the fun of it?
