I'm not sure that silently (from the user's point of view) changing  
the interval to the arbitrarily chosen limit is the best way to go.  
The user will not know this has occured unless he examines the event  
after creating it.

Also, I'm not sure we want to enforce an arbitrary limit in the  
library itself. Next to impossible, but you never know, somebody may  
have a legitimate reason to use Horde_Date by itself to calculate this.

What about imposing the limit in the client code, and not allowing the  
event to be created if it exceeds some (configurable?) interval limit?
