The problem with this patch is that it requires a  
backwards-incompatible change in Kronolith. The listCalendars API  
method is unfortunately more correct than the listTasklists  
counterpart; returning an object through the API is very unfriendly to  
access by xml-rpc or json.

Unfortunately, I don't think there is an existing API call that  
returns both calendars and names in one shot. It would be possible to  
add a new API call to Kronolith that does this, and check for the  
presence of that call in IMP; the feature would be available if the  
API call was available.

Alternately, events could be added to the default calendar, requiring  
no API changes to Kronolith.

On the implementation side, having the date of the added events be  
today seems very counterintuitive to me. My idea for this feature was  
that it would involve a little inline ajax dialog that would allow you  
to choose the time of the event.
