I don't think there's need for any non-UI code here. On the UI side, I could
see a bunch of reorganization being possible. For one thing, does anyone use
the All Day option and actually want it to mark the whole day as busy?

I think we could have some radio buttons that toggled tabs with the
appropriate UI elements:

- Untimed Event (just shows start date, no time)
- Lasts for ... [duration fields show up]
- Ends at [end time fields show up]

Etc. - it'd take some work, but especially for richer clients I think we
could have a much more intuitive UI here. But all of this is beyond the
original request, which I think is functionally met now.
